I'm constantly in pain. i've had mris, ct scans, pet scans, x-rays, etc etc etc. need to get my back muscle back to normal slowly, what to do?

Back pain..: What did the imaging show? You need to treat the origin of the pain. Are there herniated/bulging discs, sprain, strain, etc. ? Physical therapy may help. Heating pads may help for chronic injury. Acupuncture may be helpful.. But again you need to know what you are treating. Pain medications may help with the symptoms but you have to find the root of the problem to fix it. See your doctor.
