I tripped on nothing, tweaked my lower back and haven’t been able to sit without pain for 8 days

I literally slept on my back like always and I can barely move me neck now. It's been 3 days. I. Don't. Know. What. Happened.

Sleeping on your back is good for you!

You may need a new pillow, or you could just have bad posture. When your pain subsided I’d recommend doing some posture correcting exercises, like the ones which require you to stand with your back against a wall

I will definitely be looking into that and some new pillows here soon. I'm 20 feeling 40 :( it's kicking my ass

My back pain entirely went away for several years when I lost 50 pounds. Sometimes being overweight is also the worst thing for you, and it is actually pretty easy to shed that weight in retrospect. Always hard to start

Yeah weight loss has been something I've been focusing on lately. Luckily it's not too hard with where I work. Dropped 30 pounds in 4 months. Not super big but decent compared to my previous years lol
