I am 28 years old and have backaches from time to time. X-rays from a few years ago say - abolition of physical lordosis in the cervical spine, right-sided curvature in the thoracic spine, and slight left-sided curvature in the lumbar spine. These are photos from 1999, then I also had a two-week rehabilitation recorded and nothing else since then. Unfortunately, I also have a tendency to slouch, which I try to control as often as possible. What can I do right now to avoid back pain. I have already visited a neurologist, but I was recommended to use apap with ibuprom. I don't just want to fight the pain, I'd like to try something "less invasive".
Unfortunately, we have to take care of our spine through rehabilitation. When the disturbances do not pass, we perform magnetic resonance imaging. If necessary, some changes should be operated. However, if the changes are on many levels, rehabilitation is very recommended, including swimming with an open frog.
