back pain

I have been experiencing groin pain (penis, urethra, scrotum, etc.) since February. I have undergone every form of imaging & testing (Pelvic MRI, ultrasound, urinalysis, bloodwork) with nearly unremarkable results (only mild inflammation of L5). I have undergone 8 sessions of Pelvic Floor...

Hi everyone! I was recently a guest on a podcast where I share my journey with chronic pain (TMS), what triggered it, and what I did to overcome it. Posting it here in hopes it helps others! https://share.transistor.fm/s/7edd40e2 (Overcoming Proximal Hamstring Tendinopathy | Emily's Chronic...

I’ve tried TMS methods for approx 3 years and had zero results. Where do I go from here? Hope feels impossible…

For Dutch people :-) Ik heb er eindelijk de tijd voor gevonden om op YouTube te delen hoe ik herstelde van rugpijn en RSI. Jaren terug heeft een soortgelijk succesverhaal me enorm geholpen, ik geef het graag door!

Somewhere in a post in the past few days I read that a well known member recommending against reading Healing Back Pain as well as Mind over Back Pain, both by John Sarno. I read that this website is only in honour of John Sarno, and not necessarily a full blown enthusiastic support of all of...

I'm truly mind blown that I have been pain free for a week, from my original low back pain. I've been bendin down, pickin things up .. I started going to a martial arts gym (because I deemed this the most mentally AND physically challenging thing I could do).. That "fuck it, let's go for it"...

Anyone else with low back pain that doesn't seem to have any muscular "trigger point"? My pain jolts anytime I bend forward, on the left side of my low back. Very sharp and sudden pain anytime I do that one movement. Otherwise I feel no pain. But when I reach back there to try and rub it or...

https://www.tmswiki.org/forum/threads/back-pain-fully-gone-after-10-years-of-torture.4488/#post-27688 (Back pain fully gone after 10 years of torture.) Hi, My success story from 2014 is above. Unfortunately my story of hope has turned to a struggle the last 6+ years. After being pain free for...

I have worked with 3 TMS therapists and had zero results. I also use curable and do breathing and meditation exercises daily. no results. any ideas?

I'm 22 and have suffered low back pain over one year. (I'm an Asian so English isn't my mother tongue. Plz understand my grammar mistake) As i wrote my profile, i did everything including Endoscopic surgery. But nothing worked. I have only one degenerative. Most doctors said they don't know why...

Hello everybody, I am infinitely appreciative of you taking the time to read my story. Let me start by letting you know that I am a 24 year old male. My concern about my health began when I started having panic attacks in March 2023 which at the time I did not know that it’s a panic attack and...

Hello all. Looking for some help & will try to make this brief. 30th May I had a massage & that very same night felt some sharp very painful electrical zaps in my groin/ lower back area. I took some painkillers & then the zaps happened suddenly again a few days later. I noticed my right...

Hi I’ve had sessions with 2 different TMS therapists and each time got 0% better. I know as much about TMS as they do, despite never recovering after 3 years of trying mind body approach. Do I give up working with therapists now? I have the Curable App which is good, although not made me any...

Lauren Krulis is a PhD student at the New School for Social Research and is researching a pain neuroscience online treatment and is looking for individuals with chronic back or neck pain for her study. Participants will be required for 2 hours and will be paid $40 for their participation. You...

There, I said it. Will acknowledging this rage make me better? Probably not.

I know this is not a place for medical advice. When I first started getting back pain around 30 years old (4 years ago), I remember the day. I was play-fighting with my wife after a hike while we were on vacation, and my entire back seized up. I had to lie down, for nearly 30 minutes, on some...

Did anyone on here actually receive treatment off John Sarno? Did you go through his program? What did it involve please?

I thought you might find this compatible with Sarno's observations. I didn't read their suggestions about relieving back pain, but the very idea that the ways one sits or stands causes back pain is rebutted...

Hi there, Last week while standing still (taking a break from the dishes) all of a sudden it hit me: a very sudden and very painfull pain in my lower back, above my buttocks on the left side. I have never felt something like this before. I literally couldn't walk anymore. I went to bed in the...
