I'm a 13 year old girl with back pain!?

Question

For the past few weeks I've been having different pains, for a few days it was my neck, that was pretty bad but it went away. Now my mid/lower back hurts on and off. What could the reasons for this be in a 13 year old? Thanks.

Answer 1

Are your feet flat?

I get those things when I've been on my feet too long or if I'm not wearing supportive shoes; like rubber flip flops or something.

Answer 2

Stress...

or

maybe you pulled a muscle

Answer 3

HI,

It could be your period trying to come, or possibly have you moved wrong while doing something? Have you lifted anything lately and not realize it until your having these pains?  It could be pulled or strained muscles.  For your age I suggest trying 1 advil and if it doesn't help take another.  Be sure you get permission from your mom or dad..be sure your not allergic. Tylenol also helps but that doesn't work for me no matter what. I have chronic pain so I take some heavy duty pain medications. Good luck and just take it easy for the next few days or a week, If your not better by then, you'll need to see your doctor.  Hope ya feel better.

Answer 4

it could be in ur genes if eithre of ur parents had back pains

Answer 5

Period can cause this [cramps]

The bed you sleep on [like a futon]

Large b***s.

Sports.

A fall.

Answer 6

It could be growing pains. Or you're sore from working out?

Answer 7

idk go see a chiropracter

Answer 8

Have you started your periods yet? If so, then its probably cause of that and its completely normal, take some pain killers and if its REALLY bad then go see a doctor. If it is just your back then maybe its the way your sleeping ? Get a better mattress maybe? x

Answer 9

you've probably over worked your muscles  

Answer 10

sometimes if u hav pains its because u r growing or starting a growth spurt. so hopefully that is the case! but if they become severe pains u should tell ur parents or an adult right away!

Answer 11

i dont know about the neck pains, but for your back pains, maybe its your kidneys. drink more water and see if that helps

Answer 12

it might be your period

Answer 13

well, do u play any sports? I'm 13 and i play a lot of sports which makes me sore sometimes.

Answer 14

You're overworking your back. Just rest for a few days and you should be fine!

Get better,

Answer 15

are your b***s huge?  I had a few friends like that and they'd always be complaining about their backs.
