 if your back hurts for 5 days straight should you go to the doctor?  Aleve helps, but doesn't make it go away.  I hate going to the doctor and would appreciate any alternative ideas to ease the pain.

try some stretches/yoga. i rarely do either, but when i have a really bad ache/pain, it helps so much. i have the miracle ball method, you can get them for like $11.99 at costco (if they're still there) and it's a little book and two little balls that you lay down on, following the instructions. that helps a lot when i have pinched nerves and other super pains. i'd let you borrow mine but i leave for CA in about half an hour.

plus, what part of your back is it?

went to the doctor on Friday and got lectured for having a severe kidney and bladder infection that's been there for two weeks. i had the "joy" of getting a shot in my back side, and am now living on antibiotics.

ew. I had a bladder infection once, but i caught it right away, got some medicine, and was fine in a few days.
