Hello. Ive been experiencing extremely mild lower back pain for the past few days, from my several months of sleeping on the couch. (Unfortunately, thats the only option for my sleeping.) While showering today, my back was still bothering me and I tapped it a bit in hopes that the pain would go away. Instead it intensified, and I cant even bend down to touch my toes. Additionally I feel light headed and a bit short of breath. What should I do?
Hi, I have gone through your query and understand your concerns. You should be worried but not too much. In my opinion you are probably having spinal issues like prolapsed inter vertebral disc / nerve root compression at spinal level, which is caused by your couch.I will suggest you to take some NSAIDs (Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory Chat Doctor.  And use a flat / hard bed for sleeping. I will suggest you to apply some pain relief gel at bedtime. You will be fine soon. Wish you a good health. Thanks & Regards
