Back pain/AS

Bones, joints and muscles

Hi. I put up a post about a week ago asking about axial spA. I just wanted to ask about some symptoms I'm getting and see if it's linked. Brief info, 17 y/o F, I had some history of injuring my back in a minor car accident. Family history of arthritis, MS, Lupus etc. Had a sudden onset of arrhthymia, b9/b12 deficient, and pes planus.

I get mainly lower back pain where it's a painful ache. Sometimes it's located in one spot and it stings. Usually it's all the way across. Sometimes it burns. Sometimes pain shoots down my legs when I bend (sometimes= about once a week). I also get pain in the upper back and in my neck. The upper back pain is the same as lower pain however my neck is burning and aching. I'm not sure if it's all related. I'm also HLA-b27 positive.

I am sorry that I can't help you. I have not heard of most of what you have mentioned. It seems that for someone as young as you, you have more then your share of problems.

It's no problem. Lol yes, there's some more but they aren't really relevent. I'm thinking about getting a support to keep my posture good, do you have any suggestions?

Back braces are not really a good thing to wear because they can make your back weak. At least that's what I've heard
