i don’t care that you’re not a doctor, give me a proper fucking answer. i know i can ‘do yoga’ long term to reduce back pain, fucking what helps immediately? dammit

furthermore, i do not want to go to a doctor, shut the fuck up. i’m googling this bullshit because it doesn’t take 2 months and money.

    Did you try, I dunno, drinking water?

    But seriously. Get a TENS unit (also called e-stim). Amazing little things. You can get really good ones from around 30$€£, just make sure to get one that takes 4 batteries (not 3) that has at least 2 channels and some programs. No need to overpay. The one I got for 20 € has the same programs my doc’s unit has, and a full bag of replacement pads from Aliexpress doesn’t cost much either.

    Also see if caffeine does anything for you. I don’t mean coffee, but some painkillers contain caffeine.
