U need to strengthen your back. Also look into if u need a better mattress. My back took awhile to get used to a new mattress but now i have zero back issues...at one pt i was worried id need surgery.

I see a chiropractor once a month.  Keeps me upright & mostly pain-free.  This rib thing though...

I did find out (surprisingly) that aspercream with lidocaine has actually done a pretty good job dulling the pain enough to get some sleep.  Magnesium Salicylate (Doan's Pills, Backaid) made my head feel like it would explode & my ears were ringing like I'd sat in front of the amps for "The Who - Live at Leeds".

Yeah, I'm finally losing my core... I guess it's time to rebuild it. Got 20 years from the last one!

Just to be clear. You worked out, got a strong core, then didn't work out again for twenty years? o.O

Look, it's all very complex. Alcohol was involved, several midgets, a kilo of heroin, it's just hard to explain. 

But for the last 10 years, yeah kinda. But this question made me punch my gut and I can still handle a solid body blow.

Hot soak is better than a hot shower if you can manage that instead [ let's the heat really get into the muscles ] . 

Something like Icy Hot or Dakota Muscle Relief before bed can help. Although I'd suggest maybe a heating pad on low and sleeping directly on the floor for a bit to reset your back that way.

Muscle relaxers can help. If you have actual stuff wrong with your spine I've had medical staff try steriod shots that helped for like a few days idk.. 

weed..cbd oil maybe, but it's just temporary relief at best. I have a hard time believing cbd oil is worth it. Especially for back issues.
