I am a 17 year old male around 130 pounds very active. I play tennis, but have chronic back, knee and general joint pain. When I was 15 years old I was diagnosed with mild scoliosis. Later that year I experienced a stress fracture in my femur and developed longer term tendinitis in my ankles and knees. Low grade pain medication have not worked in the slightest bit, and I don’t want to be on pain killers or anything of the sort. My parents are opposed to chiropractors and physical therapy. What can i do to get some relief……. i want to try a session with a massage therapist specializing in chronic back pain (shes a family friend) or a chiropractor. What do you suggest???
Lately my lower back by the back of my pelvis, I experience sharp but mostly aching pain sometimes followed by numbness and throbbing. It’s very close to the nerves, and the vertebrates in my back are sensitive to the touch and if pressed on correctly, I will experience extremely sharp pain.
