Abdominal Discomfort
thoracic compression fractures causing much discomfort under ribs / top of distended abdomen: constipation also
With lower ribs pressing on top of pelvic bone
Other than stretches / physio exercises anything I can do about it?
Feels that a well fitted back support would help ?
I am 81. Was very fit before fractures occurred
Good advice Anb I would add only 1 thing. Be sure to laugh every single day.
Always good in a strange sort of way to know we are not alone in our struggles in life Keep smiling it really helps
Drink plenty of water. Eat apples for fiber.Are you able to do some walking?
Also Mineral oil for constipation
Ask doc/pharmacist for dose
So sorry for your pain.
Feel better soon
I think a back brace helps a lot. I don’t wear one regularly . They are hot. But if my back acts up and tries to go out on me or if it hurts badly I will wear a Muller back brace I bought from Walmart. It helps a lot and usually one full day of wearing it and I am okay again. I also have a massage mat with heat that helps some but not as much as the back brace.
I am caregiver to my 93-year-old mother-in-law and 8-year-old grandson. I wish I could walk. Achilles tendinitis and severe osteoarthritis pain keeps me from walking.
I Have Persistent Upper Abdominal Feeling Of 'tightness' And Pain Like A Belt Pulled Tight Around Me Just Under The Breast Area.
