I have been in agony with my back since Christmas Eve. Feels like it is giving way, coughing and sneezing is making me cry.
Tried alternate, brufen and paracetamol, alternate cold and hot water bottles. I thought I needed stronger pain relief so went walk in on Boxing Day and was given strong codeine - even that isn’t touching the sides.
I have had this previously and had wonders from oestopath in one session but oestopath can’t see me till the 3rd.
I just don’t know how I can get through till then. Yesterday, after resting appearing to make it worse I tried brisk walking for an hour - didn’t make it worse but didn’t help.
I have young kids and need to be ok!
Any other tips?
