Teenager with back pain

My 15 yo DS has back pain and has on/off for a couple of years. Yesterday in an argument about him needing to get out more and exercise (he’s skinny but does a lot less since lockdown) he replied I asked you to take me to a doctor but you won’t! I don’t remember him ever asking and yelled back your old enough to call yourself you know! This morning I’m wondering whether I should speak to Gp. I assumed back pain was common in teens, growing and stooping etc.

YANBU it’s common it’ll pass he’s just making excuses
YABU speak to Gp and see what they say!

Please share your stories of your teens

When did you last replaced his mattress?

@FarmGirl78 I have replaced it since the back pain started plus he’s at uni now and it’s still coming every few months.
He had an MRI a few weeks back. No results as yet but assume no news is good news.
