Hey guys, I was wondering if you could help me out with a little problem I have.
I seem to be pretty unlucky when it comes to injuries and such, and my back/neck is no exception.
I'm 18 now, but when I was about 13 my back and neck were fine, never seemed to click or anything. However one day at school someone I don't know randomly came up to me and thumped me in the back I was obviously a bit annoyed, especially as I didn't see who it was (they seemed to head off really quickly). I didn't think much of it at the time.
Later that day though, my neck started to click, so I waited and hoped it would go. But weeks, months, and now years later I still have a really bad neck. Here are the symptoms:
Neck seems to pop everytime I look to the right (unbelievably annoying, especially when it happens when you're not expecting it)
The sound you get when rustling tissue paper, a sort of "rubbing" sound, is what I get whenever I make slight movements to my neck. I feel I have to complete that movement and make the sound fully click or happen otherwise my neck will feel quite stiff.
General stiffness, especially in the morning so I have to crack my neck every morning when I get up.
Anyone experienced anything similar? It would put my mind at rest
And before anyone asks, yes I have been to see more than one doctor about this but they all say its not serious enough to have x-rayed, which is annoying.
I really can't stress enough how annoying this is, you'd have to be me to know if you know what i mean, i which i could tell doctors that:(

Go see an acupuncturist. I has a slipped disc & a pinched nerve in my back & could barely walk upright. After 6 sessions, I felt fine.

sounds to me like you have natural bone clicking and stuff from growing which is what everyone has but just doesn't notice.

hmm. thanks MJH.
i guess it might be because every time i feel it click/crack i remember him punching me, which creates a negative association in my mind maybe.
its weird that i never noticed until after he punched me though, but as you say maybe i just didnt notice before.

I'd check it out with your personal physician. There are a million things it could be from a slipped disk to some sort of degenerative disease. The doctor could tell you what it is much easier than anyone here can.

what did they do just stick needles into your back? and how much better do you feel? thanks For me, they put needles all over. They stimulate the pressure points & "chi flow". I had needles in my neck, back, legs & ears. After a 30 minute session, I felt like I had slept 9 hours. The acupuncturist I went to was Ruth Karmazon CA, Lac Karmabridge Acupuncture & Herbals, PC 490 Schooley's Mountain Rd Ste 3B Hackettstown, NJ 07840. I feel 100% better. If my back gets a tweak, I go back for a few sessions. I also bought a new mattress, which had a lot to do with my back being warped as well. Good luck. |

You're 17 now, but you were 18 on March 12th when you wrote your "clicking toe" thread.
Weird.

My neck is messed up as well but nobody caused the problem. As I've gotten older my neck seems to stiffen a lot more and when I turn it to the sides it hurts sometimes. Also if I turn my neck really fast a sharp pain shooths through my neck.

Bod8... seriously man, what's the deal? Who are you?
First off, a simple search in Google of "bod8" resulted in you being part of numerous proboards forums... about 9 on the first page. You registered to on all of these forums on March 11th. ALL of your posts are threads that you made with your neck and toe problems copied and pasted in the exact same format - but you just use different ages each time
These are the strangest "spam" posts ever. I don't get it.
Oh, and btw, I don't expect you to respond to this. Am I being too presumptuous?

And they are both problems I want solved quickly, so I posted on boards that i have been recommended to me on PB. But yeah, I guess posting the same thing must get pretty annoying, so I'll stop now - sorry i guess  |

I know about back pain. I did something to my back last Summer at work and it's not been the same since.
I suggest you get it looked at, you don't want it to get any worse and it never hurts to have these things looked at.

go see a chriopractor(sp?)
its a doctor that specialises in neck/back and your phsyatic(sp?) nerves, he will find the problem and then try to fix it with massages/special excercised
