Back discomfort and arthritis?
Question by : Back discomfort and arthritis?
I am 17 years old and my Mother claims “Your also youthful to feel back discomfort!” Is it genuine ONLY old individuals can get arthritis? Because when i stroll, my knee’s crack, my correct foot cracks (I chipped a bone on it 2 many years ago by falling down some measures outside) and when i sit up from my chair or i get out of my bed my back cracks loudly. Earlier i fell asleep on the couch and my brother was playing video video games in the residing area and he heard a loud ‘crack’ from my back although i was sleeping and he believed it was odd. The only thing that does not crack on my physique is my neck. Often it hurts too significantly. At times i think about killing myself because no 1 will aid me and the discomfort can be unbearable on rainy days (Literally!) . I’d inquire for pain medication such as vicodin (I have been given it prior to for my foot and it did WONDERS! I felt slight discomfort and it was tolerable soon after i took it) but i hear that is what they phone a “RED FLAG” (Suspicious). Could i get my back X-Rayed to prove i am in discomfort? Can teenagers even get arthitis?
(Also my fingers like..i don’t know how to clarify it. Sometimes my fingers will go completly STIFF and i cannot move them.)
A person please aid…what should i do? And do not tell me to do fricking Yoga, I’ve attempted it all!
Also, My Mom and me have been in a lousy auto accident when i was a infant. Could that of impacted me and could that be the result in of my back pain? What really should i do? No one will aid me, my mother doesn’t do shit for me……She will not even take me to the hospital if I am sick. She’ll just say I am being melodramatic when I am not! It hurts! I have a Reduced threshold for pain!!
God damn it, i CANT do Yoga (I can not physically!!) and i do not want any sites linking to ‘tremedol’ i don’t want pills illegally and i don’t want them to get large, i am in Discomfort and i want a real answer. Just please a person, solution my question..I can not take this discomfort any longer…

Hello Katherine, and YES any person of any age can have arthritis.
It may or may not be the cause of your pain, though it sounds like it to me.
For over 2 decades I have suffered arthritis pain, but it did not show up as arthritis in tests until now.
The problem with suffering pain, is that no one else can feel what you are going through and that includes the doctor.
A lot of the time, people who go to the doctors suffering pain – and are tested for known causes of such pain – and nothing shows up in the test – are treated as if they are pain killer addicts.
Most of the tests that are available are not very sensitive.
Also the doctors tend to take the lesser of the extremes when it comes to test results.
For example – I had a test result come back positive and the explanations ranged from – you have just finished your periods or you have Endometriosis.
A huge difference in possible diagnosis and consequences and these types of tests are still used today and are really useless unless you are quite severe with illness and close to serious consequences. Not good, but it is the way it is.
Now about your pain – regardless of what is causing it – have you considered trying natural medicines. I ask this because Medicinal Herbs have pain killing properties as well. I found this out when I started taking some for another health issue and found that they also addressed the pain.
I sourced my information from a website called herbsarespecial.com.au and I explained in an email to them – my issues and pain was amongst them.
They shared with me there understanding of 3 dried herbs called “King of Bitters”. “Gotu Kola”‘ and “Herb Robert”. These herbs have been really great.
They also shared the value of taking fresh herbs such as Comfrey and Plantain.
I personally take all of these as a tea and it really makes a difference to the pain.
Please be aware that these herbs have drug properties, so if you are taking any medications, you should check to see if there are any contraindications.
Because you have indicated that your mum is not as supportive as you would like at this time.
Please be sure to explain your situation to the people at the Herb site I have mentioned.
They are extremely helpful people and can email you information about the herbs in detail – much more detail than is available on the site.
Just let them know that you are researching as a young person without adult assistance and you would like to know if any of the above mentioned herbs cause problems with mainstream medications.
If you feel comfortable – tell them the names of your medications and also any diagnosed illness that you have. They were wonderfully helpful to me and I am sure that they will help you too.
There are so many things that can cause the terrible pain that you described and that is why the above herbs are wonderful and the Gotu Kola is given a huge write up -on its help with arthritis pain.
It took me about 2 weeks before I felt the benefits of the tea and I haven’t looked back since.
I hope this helps in some small way.
Sending warm wishes your way. SS

Juvenal arthritis is a bane to all youngsters, the hospitals are full of kids that have these problems. I have osteoarthritis in the severe degenerative stages. The “cracking ” you hear is probably from the spurs that grow on the vertebrae, these sometimes don’t know when to stop growing and they can be a nuisance. I had more then several cut off.
You should see a good orthopedic surgeon and get an opinion from him after X-Rays and MRI’s you can start on your own medication like an over the counter Chondroitin/ Glusomine in the pill or powder form. It’s a natural body balance. Your doctor may recommend it.
