The pain is not debilating, just very aggregating. I have no weakness in arms or legs. The pain has been around about a month now. I ve had no injury to that area that I know of. The pain hasn t gotten worst, but hasn t gone away. I m 33, male no history of health problems. Doctor: This type of problem appears in a person who is using Mattress since long time and the place where u r lying definitely there will be a sagging of matress so first u have to change ur matress and use Firm bed then follow Physiotherapy advices like UST, Maitland mobilization some extension exercises & Ergonomic advices if u r habitual to work in a slouch posture, be attentive for ur posture.
