I’m 21 years old and Male, i’d say 3-4 times every year for the past 5 years I mess my back up badly after lifting something usually. (once by twisting while adjusting my belt) and get a very sharp pain in the center of my back that makes it hard to breathe if I flex my back muscles doing almost anything.

Every-time my shoulders go lopsided, usually my left shoulder is significantly lower and my whole body is slanted. I think it’s called “lateral shift” and it hurts like hell to try to correct the posture and if I move using my back muscles it’s easy 6-7/10 pain.

I usually get back up to speed within a week. (4-7 days) but the first few days are so bad. Once I did this to my back before I had to go under surgery and they put me to sleep with anesthesia and when I woke up the pain was completely gone. Like I healed instantly. When just before I was in horrible pain.

Makes me think something falls out of place instead. So like not something that needs healing but something that needs to be put back if that makes sense.

I haven’t been able to go to the doctor in a long time and when I did I never talked about my back, once I get medical insurance back it’ll be the first thing I do. I’m sorry in advance if I made it hard to understand, I will really appreciate any kind of input and if you need more info i’ll be happy to answer. Thank you.

TLDR: Back hurty please help
