Lower back pain

I am experiencing lower back pain the last few days. The pain that I am having is in the middle of my lower back, pretty close to the tail bone especially after I sit or stand for a while. It didn't stop me from doing my activity but it ached on prolonged sitting to standing. I don’t know what is causing me this pain but I was wondering could it be from the surgery last year? Is it because I started moving and being too active too soon after the surgery, it's from lack of calcium, or am I just shrinking? My pain isn’t disabling but it is uncomfortable. So I bought several calcium supplements, and promised myself that I will try walking/exercising more tomorrow. Hopefully this combo is the right cure for my problem.

El, hope you recover soon. Like Ivy, I have back pain too now and then but mostly it occurs during period time.

@Ivy & Eva: thanks gals, I drink calcium milk everyday now (I hate milk), supplements and doing a bit of exercise to ease the pain and it helps a bit.

@Devi: nah..I look funny in heels :) thanks for your concern..looking forward to meet you on Sunday! :)

Mesti periksa lho...Jakarta yang rumah sakit tulangnya bagus, konon yang di Pasar Minggu.

Siapa tahu bisa diterapi....
Saya pernah sakit, karena pas outbound terperosok...kaki jadi sakit, ternyata tulangnya melesak...jadi sekarang dianjurkan tak sering pakai sepatu tumit tinggi

@Toni: tau aja Kang Toni, memang kalo sudah asik motret kadang sampai tiarap segala...pernah hampir jatuh juga saking kelamaan posisi kepala dibawah..hehehe!

@edratna: sekarang sudah mendingan kok Bu! saya jarang banget pakai hak tinggi, kebanyakan sepatunya teplek :)

Keqnya Toni bener tuh, pasti sekarang kebiasaan ngambil pose2 yg nggak2 saking nafsunya hunting foto :D

Aku juga sering kok sakit punggung, biasanya karena posturnya jelek aja (kalo duduk ngga tegak) dan jarang olahraga he3x...

i get that, too, sometimes especially when i am under a lot of stress. sometimes, it would last days, and it hurts when i make sudden move. lately i haven't felt, and i didn't take anything for it. a friend of mine said it happens to her when she doesn't drink enough water.
