I can't move!?

Question

I am 12 years old,and my back hurts really bad from basketball practice yesterday! And if I even stand up,it hurts like crazy! What can I do to make it stop?!

Answer 1

You need to take some ibuprofen or naproxen. Contact you parent or guardian to see how much they will let you take but take some and if this doesn't help then see the school nurse or your doctor.

Answer 2

If you have a shower head that will reach your back, try spraying as hot water as you can stand on it for about 15 minutes and then lie down on a firm surface. Take advil, Or ibuprofen and if the pain dosn't ease in 2 days consult a doctor. Take it easy for the next two days, avoide picking up heavy objects like a back pack. These problems can follow you all your life so take good care of it. I hope you get better because I know it's the worse pain i've rver experianced. God Bless you.

Answer 3

I play field hockey and we have to bend over all of the time. I get a really sore back a lot. It is probably just a pulled muscle. Try to take a hot bath, stretch it out and take some Motrin to ease the pain. Maybe just resting it could be the best. Try not to over do it. You may want to take a day off from basketball. If the pain continues, see your doctor and they may tell you to go and see a physical therapist. Hope this helps! -Rayna

Answer 4

You probably pulled a muscle in your back. Take a warm bath to ease up the muscle, have someone massage your back. Try not to sit in one place too long or you'll stiffen up (hence the pain when you move). If the pain is really bad ask your parents if you are able to take a muscle-relaxant medication like Robaxacet. Be warned - such medications are very strong and cause drowsiness and/or dizziness.

Answer 5

Thats easy. first lay on a bed of nails to focus the pain. Then drink a glass of coldwater adding 2 tablespoons of salt, 1 teaspoon of sugar and 1/4 cup of milk. Now lay on top of a basketball rolling your back up against the ball and try to bounce it circulating your blood and relieving the pain. Beforewarned that I got this remedy from the same old guy that walked 40 miles to school each day, uphill, in a blizzard.

Answer 6

No need to fear Dr. Mike is here. Studies show that the best way to releave back pain is to rest for a while. If your back starts to swell try appling ice. If you believe that the area is injured try compressions, probally an ice wrap or some type of wrap.

Answer 7

When I was in the Army, I injured my back landing funny during a jump. It didn't affect me until the end of the day, when the pain caused me so much agony that I was unable to move.

It turned out to be some kinda back muscle swelling and pushing against my spine. Definitely go to the doc about this one.

Answer 8

I agree with the hot bath, but don't take any medications without talking with your parents first....ask them id you can take Advil. I had a bad neck pain and it helped me. The ball practice probably just made you overuse some muscles you don't use that often.
Check with your parents before taking any medications.

Let me ask you a question: Why should you risk spending tons of your hard earned money on expensive medications, chiropractors and surgeries when you don't have to? In fact, choosing any of these methods could cause further complications and serious health issues.
