Selma has the same question I have, if you have hyperactive joints that can be the problem. Ask about spinal decompression at the PT office or chiro office, it may help. Also ask about cold laser treatment at the PT office and if they don't have the things suggested find another one that does. Keep us posted!
Hope I Help
I'm not double jointed but it all started when i fell from the top of a chreeleading stunt 2 years ago and landed on tile floor. My back was fine but later on in May i injured my tailbone in soccer. I was hospitalized and it healed itself. Then in November that year a gym mat fell on my back and i started cracking my back. I went to a chiropractor from april of 2008 to july. and from july to October. I am going to see a back specialist in March. But it seems that i can't wait.
Did u have MRI's of ur back and neck?.....if u r that much discomfort I believe a visit to the dr is in order.
Please let me know how u make out!!
Merry Christmas!!

I had a MRI of my back when i hurt my tailbone. I just asked for an MRI of my neck but my docter wants me to wait until i see the back specialist. But thats not until March. All my doctor has told me to do is Advil and heat, which doesn't help much. I need something to stop the knots. I have them spreading from my neck and back to down my shoulders and arms and now down my leg. I stretch and use a heating pad but there are too many and its not stong enough.
Google this name, Bonnie Prudden.....is developed a technique called myotherapy and she has abook called Pain Erasure the Bonie Prudden way....it was developed for Fibro pain, but works on all pain.The book shows u how to apply the technique on urself!....it is simmilar to accupuncture....but is more os accupressure....no needles!!
I hope this can be of some help till u see ur drs.
