My lower back hurts and top of back

It could be infection. There's a virus that sits in bones and mimics arthritis. It's often missed by gps. It can be diagnosed with a scan and treated with antibiotics.

In fact a lot of back pain is due to infection. It's something to rule out anyway.

Hi there.

Like you I have back ache but mine started after an accident many years ago (1976) for me the sickness comes as a result of to much pain the same with the heat there are times in winter I could be outside on a very cold day with no top on and still be sweating.

my advice to you is go and see your doctor and see what he/she can give you i expect you need a good pain killer along with a muscle relaxer.

was you involved in an accident at the start? from what I have seen most people who develop back ache have a cause they can put the damage down to, when you see your doctor make sure you tell him/her about all the problems at the same time and get them to treat you as a whole and not as separate problems.

most likely the dizziness is due to your neck which causes the muscles to spasm causing you to have a bad neck and headache.

I wish you all the best in finding a cure that works for you,

To be brutally honest there are 1001 different things this could be. It could be infection, a pulled muscle, something to do with your previous problem or something as random as constipation.

I am sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but the only way to know for sure is to go and see a doctor.

I am sorry if I sound mean in this. I just didn't want to fill you with false hope or fear. With something as fragile and complex as a back I feel it is important to be careful with giving ideas of diagnosis on here without really knowing what's going on.

I really hope you feel better soon and you get you back sorted.
