Hi, im a 20yr old female. I've been having back pain for almost 3yrs now. The back pain is mostly near the lower region. The pain is mostly dull, like aches. It hurts when im sleeping and waking up as well as when im sitting although rarer when im sitting.
The pain may radiate down my thighs and calves, and now it seemed to hurt my feet too. When im sitting, my buttock hurts and it feels like im sitting on hard concrete.
Sometimes when i try to reduce the lower back pain by sleeping in different positions, the uppet back region, shoulders and chest somehow feels like it's stiffen up.
Just recently ive went to the doctor and he seemed to think that it was due to bad posture and gave me some mild painkillers. It seemed to help but only for the period of usage. What's worse is that right after i finished the painkillers, my whole body ached (chest,ribcage,shoulder,neck) they became sore to touch, and my left index finger started twitching involuntarily.
Please help as im worried that it may be something serious and i feel generally unwell, although it may be due to anxiety. Thanks.
