Pain in my lower thoracic area

[nanbaby4]

Is this from Parkinson’s? I get up feeling ok and after an hour i just want to go back to bed because I have pain in my back that is a #9

Hi, could it possibly be something else? If it is not I would suggest using a far infrared Jade heating pad. You can look them up on both eBay and Amazon. They seem to really help with pain and relax the body and promote your Chi

I’ve had every test to find out why it was there. No reason yet. I will see about the jade heating pad

nb4, Please answer this one question. When you dress in the morning, do you put on a bra?

[nanbaby4 in reply to ronn]

Yes but not always comfortable

[ronn in reply to nanbaby4]

Please forgive me for the brashness of that last question. It was asked in an attempt to determine if we have the same problem.

I now believe we do... Whenever I wear anything tight around my waist (belt, elastic, pant waist band) it causes moderate to severe pain in the area where the flow of blood, through external pressure on the blood vessels within the skin, causes a restriction of blood flow to points beyond. The skin has two basic layers, the dermis which is tough and provides protection for the epidermis through which the blood vessels transport blood. When blood flow , under pressure from pumping action of the heart, is restricted, it causes pain, swelling and some disruption of the system. It is possible to feel pain increase briefly, then subside as the body "makes repairs". In your situation, when you wear a bra, the back and shoulder strips can exert pressure on the skin and vessels underneath causing the pain that you feel. I hope this helps.

It doesn’t make absolute sense and is it from parkinsons

[ronn in reply to nanbaby4]

No, it doesn't make absolute sense, as stated, and, as to your question, "is it from Parkinson's", I will admit having never seen the term "Brazierre pain" on the list of Parkie symptoms.
