Sat at my desk at work and I am in agony, paracetamol and ibuprofen aren't even touching it and I can't take anything stronger at work because of the nature of my job, I just want to curl up in a ball and cry :( Any tips on something I can do at my desk to alleviate pain? Or do I take my first day off sick in 2 years? :(

Try a hot water bottle or microwaveable bean bag & tiger balm red- it really helps. Failing that maybe you need to take a sick day & go & see your GP? Hope you feel better soon xxx
