Gosh AustianEllie, that sounds so painful..... :bigcry:
at the moment i am having severe back pain, went for x-rays last week, awaiting the results now....normally i use a warm compress for my back or hotwater bottle...:thumbs:
What about painkillers? Do they not work?
Have you tried physiotherapy????
acupuncture...and or acupressure...

Eleanor, you say you have five broken vertebrae, how did it happen?
Are your bruised, was it recent, etc.
Pain management depends on many factors.
If they are broken, is your back supported by some means, do you have to lie down, etc.?
Thanks Everybody for the welcomed response. Please feel free to mail me anytime.
