    I suffered for years with monthly or so muscle spams, ex ercise the doc said, physio to,it got
    To the stage where the spasms were permanent and i literally didnt care whether i lived or died. More exercise, more swimming. Small weights

    Eventually i saw a specialst, i explained my problem, he didnt even examine me.
    He said the problem is a tiny joint in my spine, a facet joint was being irritated and causing this excruating 24/7 pain.
    Stop all excercise, the heaviest thing you should pick up (the problem was between my shouldeblades) for a month is a knife anf fork.
    With 24 hours i was so much better, within a week i was totally out of pain...
    Sometimes all you need is rest and a little heat.
    make the most of it, we are only here for the weekend.
    and we will never, ever return.

    I suggest you buy the best mattress for back pain for your wife. I also suffering from back pain. My doctor advises me to take a new mattress for back pain. I feel better after buying a Refresh Mattress.
