What Are the Common Spinal Problems that Can Occur to Anyone?

The spine is the backbone of our body, and it is known to perform various functions other than providing structure to our body. The spine is made up of a number of small bones known as vertebrae that are stacked on top of each other. Each vertebra is also supported by a disc that provides a cushioning effect and prevents them from damage against impacts. Any injury to the spine could be painful and can lead to Spinal Problems, affecting the quality of life. In severe cases, special spinal implants are required to be placed to correct the injury or other conditions.

It’s Ehlers-Danlos awareness month and I am very aware right now

My body’s favorite hobby? Gaslighting me into thinking I’m fine until I move. Then it’s like, ‘Haha, just kidding- suffer’

Hi I need people to remember scoliosis isn't the only back issue that exists

I've had multiple instances where I talked about my back issue, stating a defect in my spine causes me chronic pain, and people respond with "so do you have a form of scoliosis?"

NO. not only does this show how little people understand scoliosis but that scoliosis being the first thing to come to mind means other back problems and spine conditions are not known well enough and we need to fix that.

Start talking about your conditions, talk about your back problems, explain what you experience and listen when people talk about theirs.

Don't let the world continue to be ignorant and assume there's only one condition for you to have, don't let peoples ignorance out you in a box, that happens way too often and the only way we can solve and prevent it is if we don't stop talking about it.

Bringing awareness to things is the only way we can stop having to deal with situations like this where people are ignorant and make assumptions about our bodies based on our age, appearance and their limited knowledge.

And for the able bodied folk, don't talk over us, listen and learn and help us spread awareness. PLEASE

After years of putting it off, I finally got my first cane.

Definitely having mixed feelings about it. I’m worried about judgement coming from people who have seen me move around without a cane, and people claiming that I’m faking a disability because I’m young.

At the same time it’s such a relief to have something that provides me with more stability while moving around. My left leg has gotten so weak and I’m constantly scared of falling after my leg has given out multiple times (once on a flight of stairs)

I’ve got great friends who are super supportive of me finally getting a mobility aid and are willing to fight anyone who looks at me funny, but it’s definitely going to get some taking used to.

Finally figured out which cockwaffle of a muscle’s been trying to knock me down. I finally got my back to relax, okay? When I stood up, I felt my left external oblique turn into concrete right under my fucking hand.

Got called a midget today at work and god I’ve never wanted to stomp someone with my heeled boots so bad.

I have Turner’s Syndrome and am just over the height of a legal dwarf, asshole. I’ve also been bullied and ridiculed my entire adult life because of my height. Oh, does that make you uncomfortable to hear? Then mind your own fucking business.

Man I am so sorry people were being dicks about you taking goop in when she was pregnant. Thank you so much for sharing the little gooplets with us, and good job surviving those fuckers who can't read.

THANK YOU, LOL. honestly people have gotten better since then, and that post is very dear to me -- goop & pumpkin gave us a gaggle of great cats, including two of mine, and now i get to make sure they're comfortable.

i hope goop lives a few more years! she's very wobbly but she's eating and drinking just fine <3

I love waking up to my 67 year old father having a 14 year old girl style silent treatment bitchfit because he's decided overnight I'm faking my hand problems for mysterious reasons and I just love being humiliated by going to class without properly brushing my hair & also do it on purpose to, idk, screw him. Because somehow this has anything to do with him at all. I guess I need to be more understanding of his apparently grievous pain and ruin my hands even more so he can stare at my hair or whatever the fuck reason this bothers him so fucking bad.

the thing with ugliness isn't that i believe i'm inherently gross and disgusting, but i know and i mean i KNOW i look and act weird. i know for a fact i hold myself in weird ways, i cannot for the life of me stop seeming out of place everywhere, i'm incapable of acting natural, and i just can't be arsed to put any effort into my appearence cause it's so fucking complicated and i have no idea what i want anyway. it's not that i'm not salvagable by a makeup artist, a costumer, a personal etiquette trainer to fix my posture, and a good photographer, who could enhance the looks i have. most people look great when dolled up smartly. the point is that i am not a makeup artist, a costumer, a personal etiquette trainer, and a good photographer, i can't and won't do that to myself.

Apparently I did NOT have enough spoons to go shopping today, just walking through the store was such a challenge.
