OUCH! - What have I done to my back????

Last night as I sat down to eat dinner I suddenly started feeling pain in my back, near the middle just below the right shoulder blade. Felt like someone was stabbing me in the back. As the evening progressed it just seemed to get worse - and I had an awful nights sleep - every time I moved it was incredibly painful.

There's a constant dull "ache" - but when I make certain (well most actually!) movements I get the "stabbing" pain - and even coughing or sneezing often produces the same pain.....

Does it feel like a muscular type pain, as in you've pulled something/done something physical IYSWIM.

Or does it feel like something thats just started of its own accord?

I'm not sure -

DH reckons it's because of the way I have a tendency to "lean" backwards when I filling up the bottles when making them up

I think it may be linked to Friday afternoon when I spent over 1hr carrying DS3 round at DS1's School Christmas Fair....and possibly aggrivated by carrying a few heavy bags of shopping back from Morrisons early yesterday afternoon...

I just know it's sort

Sounds like its as a result of all the carrying etc . especially carrying small (or even not so small ) children as you tend to carry on one hip.

Its just when you said in your OP about pain below the right shoulder I was wondering about gallbladder problems as thats how mine started, although it moved to under the ribs at the front too.

so if I carry DS3 (who's 6 1/2 months btw - but a lump) on my left hip......would that make me damage my right shoulder????

Interesting about gallbladder - my mum had problems with her gallbladder in her mid 20's...and I'm 28......
