Recliner ?: 25y female "injured low back & side" now has difficulty reclining in any position. Reason for this given in my comments section below. This might represent acute injury to the sacroiliac joint. An exam by an Osteopath or Physiatrist is indicated. Imaging studies might be needed to rule out bone injury. Laying half way down in a recliner might help by taking pressure off the pelvic girdle.

My right side suddenly hurts..Like near my lower back ? What could cause this? I haven't injured it...It just started tonight..Suddenly?
Been injured for about a month, primarily in the left bicep but also radiating throughout the entire arm at moments. Severity of pain goes up and down. Went to urgent treatment, who said it was a pulled bicep muscle. I was wondering about a pinched nerve. Prior to this I was jarred down and landed on my back side, while in seated position. My upper abdomen and lower chest felt like it was compressed. Felt like everything had been pushed down. Any ideas? Thanks. Sore bicep/arm
