<human>: I recently starting having back pain. It does not hurt when I sit or lay but getting up and down is very difficult. Also bending to pick up something is very difficult. I am overweight (5 3 , 170lbs). I have been trying to lose weight since 1989 and everything I have tried has caused me to gain weight. All of my blood work has been good - I am on no medication. Is there a doctor that specializes in difficulty weight lose? I am concerned that my weight is causing the back pain. What do you think?
<bot>: Thank you for the question. Yes over weight may aggravate back pain, and it is fair to be right weight. I believe you have taken exercises, diet measures etc. You may ALO have a thyroid profile/hormone profile checked up. Do back strengthening exercises under guidance of a physiotherapist. See or tho surgeon and have x-rays?MRI of spine for cause of back pain. Take excel Chat Doctor.
