Hello everyone, for the past 6 years I've been experiencing severe back pain. It started when I worked in a factory in which I stood all day and worked on car headrests. I've since left that job 5.5 years ago because of the pain that it caused me. I went to my doctor when I first started having the pain and I was given Ibuprofen and other NSAIDs. They unfortunately did not help. I also went to a physiotherapist which didn't help at all. After all that, I decided that I would just let it go and see if it just gets better(I was only 17 so be kind). I went to college and it wasn't too terrible, although I still did experience back problems, they weren't as severe. No I have a job where I sit down all day and it is absolutely unbearable pain. I can't handle it. I've gone back to my doctor, gotten x-rays(they were clear, so no skeletal problems) and he's just been prescribing me the same old things again. What can I do to alleviate my pain? It hurts so much that I sometimes break down into tears and I don't think my doctor realizes how much it hurts. I've gone to emergency and they tell me to talk to my doctor. I want to live a normal life, not just laying down after work. Anyone's suggesting would be greatly appreciated. Anything to help me with this pain. Thank you in advance.
