Pinched Nerve

edited August 2012 in Health
Ok so I've had a pinched nerve in my back for almost a month. It hurts all day long, every day and is starting to effect how I do things(dressing my son, laundry,cooking).

I won't be able to see my midwife until next week so she can massage the spot, but what can I do in the mean time for relief?

I don't have the $ right now to pay to get aligned since the chiro here that does prenatal alignments charges $120..which I find to be outrageous!

I need to find some sort of temporary relief until the 9th!

    Lol @bahamamama4828! Can you do warm and cold compresses to the area?

    Tylenol extra strength? Call your doc and see if she can place a script at your pharmacy for a muscle relaxer like flexeril.
  • @blessedtxmom yes! I've called around, and they were the only ones that were reputable at doing prenatal alignmenta.d. I've NEVER paid more than $60 for an alignment before! And it really bummed me out. Even prenatal massages here are really expensive!
