Question 1

what can i do about this uncomfortable back pressure in the middle of my back ?

Accepted Answer

Depends on details: Some causes of back symptoms in young adults include:  back muscle strain, back ligament sprain, fractured vertebra (spondylolysis), slipped vertebra (spondylolisthesis), disc problem, spinal arthritis, urine infection, kidney infection, tumor, fibromyalgia, etc...  With such a big list of possibilities, one's doctor needs to examine in-person.

Question 2

i pop my back sometimea & just now i popped it. in the middle of my back, ir feels weird & kind of hurts, i feel pressure in the middle of my back bon?

Accepted Answer

May be muscular: A lot of back pain is  actually muscular. There is  also back arthritis, lumbar  discs, inflammatory back disease etc. Your evaluation will look at  all of these possibilities.

Question 3

i have pain on each side of my spine in the middle of my back, worse when i lay down and feels like intense pressure and aching what could it be?

Accepted Answer

Could be: a muscle spasm. Try warm compresses, take over the counter pain medication. If not better need to follow up with a physician.

Question 4

every time i lay on my belly i feel this pressure in the middle of my back pushing down on my spine ..what could this be?

Accepted Answer

Full stomach?: If you have a full stomach, or if you are badly constipated, when you lie on your stomach it will press against your aorta and into your vertebral column, giving you a feeling of pressure in your back. If you are concerned, your doctor can examine your abdomen.

Question 5

how do you remove tension and pressure between friends to get them back on good terms again?

Accepted Answer

Communicate: Two deep measures of a person are (1) how they deal with someone who is upset, and (2) what they do when there has been a misunderstanding. Relationships are more important than being right. You will not really understand another person, or yourself. Friends that are worth having will accept reconciliation. And there are broken relationships that can't be mended.

Question 6

i have a strange pressure feeling in upper left side of back. kinda feels like someone is pushing on my back?

Accepted Answer

: Back pain can be in several locations. Low back pain is more common and often, but always, related to the spine , where as upper back pain can be related to organ issues

Question 7

is my back broken if i heard a pop when someone placed a lot of pressure on my back? i am not feeling any pain.

Accepted Answer

No, not broken.: If your back were "broken" (vertebral fracture), you would be in a lot of pain, &amp; possibly a degree of paralysis or weakness. A simple "popping" sound is more like cracking your knuckles, but in your back. See http://www.loc.gov/rr/scitech/mysteries/joint.html. You'll be fine (as long as you're young &amp; not in pain). However, intentionally doing this long-term can lead to spondylitis. Good luck!

Question 8

i have a knot in the lower right side of my back that i've had awhile, it starts to hurt extremely bad if i put pressure on it like when bending down?

Accepted Answer

Muscular v disc: This is either muscular issue if only several weeks. If longer, it may be from a disc issue that could be a tear in the disc or a herniation.  If muscular, it will get better by about 6-8 weeks and 90% of discs improve over time. Otc meds can help as can heat &/or ice as well as guided exercise & activity modification.  Lifestyle changes like weight control, not smoking & regular exercise are key.

Question 9

hairs on my back feel sensitive to any pressure?

Accepted Answer

Skin changes: Check for any changes on your skin like blisters or rash.  See physician.

Question 10

what parts of the vertebral column have the highest pressure?

Accepted Answer

Head Back: The cervical vertebrae are relatively thin and small with some soft tissue support. The neck moves in multiple directions while carrying a relatively heavy head. The lumbar are larger and bulkier but connect to the pelvis. This is the area where body movement like twisting and lifting take place and supports most of the weight. You choose.
