A member asked:
I've been wearing an abdominal support belt, but my back pain hasn't decreased. could i have a pinched nerve?

Possible: Back pain in pregnancy is extremely common. The added weight and the change in the curve of the spine both contribute to the back pain.

Not probable: I am assuming that you are referring to lower back pain. This is usually caused by a muscle strain or ligament sprain. It may be associated degenerative changes in the discs and/or arthritic changes of the spine. You do not describe any associated leg pain, numbness or tingling, that would indicate irritation of a nerve root. Therefor I do not believe that you have a pinched nerve. See your pcp.

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
