What Causes Pain Around The Spine And Tenderness In The Wrists?

For about a week now I have experienced pain around my spine from the bottom of my neck to the middle of my back. Also wrist and thumb joint tenderness. I am a barber for 9 years and have never had these symptoms before. I also recently became vegan back in January, so I am wondering if I am defiance in something?

Hi,

Back pain due to long term standing and wrist pain due to constant use is common among barbers. Preventive measures has to be taken. Regular breaks in between work with sitting and physiotherapy for back muscle strengthening and wrist and forearm muscle stretching and strengthening is needed. Tab ultracet twice a day for pain relief can be taken.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
