911 ; Does this sound like a herniated back disc?

• 911 ; Does this sound like a herniated back disc? Hi, I'm 14 & for the past 2 weeks, I have been having sever back pain. When I wake up, I cannot twist or turn my back, & if I try I get sharp pains in my upper back & its so hurtful that I can't move. I can bend forward but not far. I am sort of scared :S Throught the day, it lossens up, and by bed time I feel alot better, but the pain is still there. Then every morning its the same routine. Is this a herniated back disc? Or does this sound like something you know? I am also breaking in a new bed! thank you !

• Answer:

  try putting a pillow under you knees at night. This takes the pressure off your lower back. I do this myself at times. You could have nerve in your back that is pinched. If you cannot bend forward or back it very well could be a nerve. have you tried hot packs? Even a good warm bath could help you lot"s. If you do not get better see your Dr asap Okay? Get Well.
