sudden back pain?

So i been laid down all day and i just went to wash the pots and suddenly got a winded feeling in lower back and now it hurts to bend backward and sit straight?

I am not experiencing anything else but the pain like i have fallen on back?

I am guessing laying all day didn't help but input appreciated :D

i also get this quite frequently lower mid back but i have a benign hemangioma there at t12. dr says thats not the cause of my pain, bologny. what else would it be. and many times a day i have pain at my shoulder blades which goes thru to my chest. when i get these pains i cannot take a deep breathe it hurts, so therefore i take short breathes and then i get dizzy. have you had mris of your full spine?

  Hi...wow this is weird I just had back pain as well for a few days....I thought I might have a kidney stone...as it was just my lower left side of my back....

The meds I am on do have the stones as a possibility....so it was one thought that crossed my mind....

The other is, we all might be doing things and straining the muscles to get this pain.....

I also had thoughts it might be tethered cord which I also have, but since it was limited to my left side, I ruled that out....I am feeling better today....so not sure....

Munchies, the way u moved, twisted and turned to scrub the pots may have just given u a strain.....and I may have just gotten pulled to much by the puppy, she is strong....and I am not use to that....who knows.

As Dana points out it could be spine related as to disks, I know I have a few but they r higher then where I was having this pain.....

It is always best to get it checked out, or mention to ur Dr when u see him next, unless of course it persists and u need assistance.

I know bending over for anything can cause these episodes to inhance.  I know easier said than done, but try taking it easy for the next couple of days.  Wishing you a better day ahead.

  Try bending at ur knees and not ur back to see if that helps...it will help with ur head pain and should help ur back as well.

FYI- I did this and I should warn u, I use to get down ok, but had issues getting back up, my knees would lock up (EDS issue) and I would get pain from that, so I would have to fall onto the floor and crawl back up.....so much fun, but my back and head were great : P
