My lower back has been aching for weeks

Really, really sore. I know it’s because I am heavy. On a strict diet now but need something to help in the meantime.

Have you tried taking anything yet?

Maybe something with an anti inflammatory?

It might help.

Been taking ibuprofen but it doesn’t do much. Will go and see the doctor. It isn’t arthritis I think, because I think that is worse in the morning. This gets worse as the day goes on.

Yeah,

It’ll probably get better with time and diet changes.

But like you said, in the meantime it still hurts.

Maybe talk to your doctor about a stronger med short term.

you might require surgery? I hope you find a remedy for the pain. I have a bad back too.

If I lie down on a hard flat surface it helps.

Maybe you could ask your doctor about going to physical therapy. The PT can teach you some back exercises as well as tips on good posture.
