Smoke some pot, i'll grab my guitar and sing you some Ben Harper songs on msn.

Personal experience to treat related health problems are ok to share, but everyone is different. For future health related threads, try to site some credible information from say a General Practice manual commonly used by GP's in training such as this one. It's dangerous to play doctor on a forum. Hope you get well soon Amelie.

If you are thinking of pursuing a career in medicine, then the steps of treating a patient are universally the same:
1. What is/are the presenting complaints?
2. Hypothesising the pathology
3. Investigating to confirm hypothesis.
4. Create a management plan
5. Follow up.

Step 3 can't be done via a forum, so it is always better if you just go to a Dr to have it properly investigated.

Let me hit you on the chin, you'll fall asleep immediately.

Lower back?
Below your ribs, or betveen your ribs?
I had similar cases like this(betveen ribs). I worked my ass off in a factory(oh, old memories), and i gone out from the workstation half naked and my backmuscles cached cold -> pain in the ass.
If this is the case, first, put on some clothes when you sleep(t-shirt is more than enough), and keep your back warm, take long showers with warm water+take B1-B6 vitamins. Helps a lot, but dont take painkillers, worst thing you can do.
Simptomes:
you cant take a deep breath, you cant turn around, coz if you do, its like some evil ninja stab you in the back.
Cheers and i hope you get better in like 1 week.

I've actually gotten something similar to this. It was after doing high hurdles in my Track meet. I went to the doc and he said it was from bending my back wrong when I landed, yes you can hurt yourself in Track. Sadly, my team got pwned by some l33t-haxorz. Forgive me for my previous sentence
