for 3 weeks i have had lower back pain. it is relieved by massage and heat. i did switch jobs a month ago. i went from standing all day to sitting 8-10 hours a day. its mainly lower back but radiates to my hip occassionally. any ideas? my guess is it is from the sitting. i did fall down the stairs a month ago and get a concussion. ive been to the doc 3 times and had ct and bladder and renal ultrasound. all negative

    It sounds like because you aren't using your back so much it could have seized up a bit. If you have had it checked out by a doctor then how about trying back exercises. There are loads online. x
