Help advice needed please and where do I get the best advice-from my friends at gransnet.
Last week I stumbled and twisted by body while at work I had to visit the gp by the Monday I had unbearable pain around my diaphragm area and round to my spine, he diagnosed intercostal strain or maybe even a tear. I was just prescribed painkillers which only take the edge off the pain.
I need to get back to work, resting doesn't help as Im bored stiff.
Have looked online for ideas but they just say rest or see an osteopath which I cannot afford.
Any ideas gratefully recieved

groan, alea I might be so bored I could come on gnet all day, I guess I would have to think up some 'winding up' ideas. 
Sorry to hear that ethel` I've pulled a muscle in my back and that's bad enough. Some years ago I pulled a Ham String in my leg - it was agony.
Resting and pain killers were the only treatment offered.
Are you managing to baby sit? It always worries me that I can't babysit when I'm not 100%
