I've been having these back pains when i lay down...?

Question

every time i lay down on my back belly or side whatever or when i just lean back in a chair [sometimes] its really hard to breathe & it hurt real bad.
But the other day i accidently electicuted my self & its been worse then it has been since i did that.

btw i electricuted my self on the poky outy thingys on my hair dryed when it was going into the outlet.

anyway so what i wanted to know is if anybody knows what i could do for my situation or if anybody could tell me what my problem is ect.

thanks for your help :]

okay well i guess i shoulda been more specific...i guess saying it hurts to breathe wasn't enuff to stimulate the fact that i was talking about my upper back in the -lung area-?. And it didn't start from any particular incident it just started happening a couple months ago.

Answer 1

it's time for you to see either an orthopedic doctor or chiropractor to find out what is causing your back pain. After this electrocution you really should see a medical doctor because it can cause many serious complications later on.

Answer 2

Back pain, in general, can be caused by about 962 different things.

If it's a lower back problem and you're on or near your period, that could be the cause. If you have had been doing any strenuous work, involving your back, it could be a muscular issue (erectors, or quadratus lumborum), if that's the case, you should get a massage. Do you feel a pulsating mass in your abdomen? If so, you could have an abdominal aortic aneurysm and you need to call an ambulance right now. If you feel pain when you bend forward, you may have a herniated disc. If you feel the pain radiate down your leg or experience numbness or tingling or shooting sensations you probably have a nerve problem, and should see your doctor, or a massage therapist, or a chiropractor. If you have trouble holding your bladder, a lumbar vertebrae may be out. If you have a fever, you may have an infection.

In any of these cases, I don't think your symptoms should have been exacerbated by being electrocuted.

Good luck!
