Mehn! I was wondering too oh.

SoEndowed:
For many years now I have suffered severe-to-chronic lower back pains that has now extended to the upper regions and my sides. I have taken all known local and orthodox medications, all to no help. My job requires me sitting all day and much as I have tried to use hot ointments, massages and sometimes hot water massaging, it hasn't helped. I even attended some physiotherapy sessions, taken x-rays and so on.
I dont know what to do again. How can I live with this condition for ever. The pain is unbearable. I have even considered quiting my job, since I've been told that my constant sitting for hours on end may be the problem. If I quit my job what will I feed my family with?
Please help me.

One thing you should know, is that you're likely to deal with it forever. It may come and go, but will always return if you go through stress etc.

Taking diclofenac is good, until you begin to enjoy the relief it gives you and abuse it, then you have an ulcer to deal with in addition to your back pain. Calcium, MSM, amino acids are helpful too, but these are supplements and you still need to get professional care.
What you need may be a simple skeletal muscle relaxant, but you won't know until you visit a doctor who's skilled in orthopedics.

Get yourself referred to see a proper orthopedic surgeon at Igbobi, or the orthopedic department of whatever tertiary institution is close to you. This is because it may have a serious cause that needs to be dealt with, instead of just taking care of the pain.

The most useful advice so far is the exercise and lifestyle modification, because it helps, but you have to keep at it for a while before there's a significant difference.

I also experienced chronic lower back pains a couple of years back. I visited several hospitals and took different medications some of them with terrible side effects yet to not avail. My life was then in disarray. At a time I could not even carry a bucket of water without limping with pain. Mind you, I've always exercised regularly and the pain was not because of adding weight.
Today, I'm completely free from the pain. This happened not because of the hospitals or pills but changes that I made in my lifestyle. These include:
1. Drastically reduced the amount of time I spent on traffic. I used to spend on the average 4-5hrs (1.5hrs going and 2.5hrs returning) everyday driving to work. I moved to a place closer to my office and now spend maximum 1 hr/day (30mins going and 30mins returning). I think this was the turning point to my self healing.
2. Started using orthopedic bed and always sleep face up
3. Manage the time I spent sitting in one position at the office.
Once I reduced the time driving on traffic, the pain gradually left and overtime I hardly experience the pain anymore.
I wish you quick recovery as you battle this terrible condition.

Don't bend your back, bend your knees.
Do your best to sit upright always.
Every hour, take a five minute break and stretch, walk around.
Orthopedic mattresses are fairly expensive and uncomfortable to sleep on at first, but please try and get one. You won't be sorry.
I hope this helps.

Not married yet but all pray and no good attitude makes you a learner.

BTW, what do you mean by "The One"? Your spouse today might not necessarily be "The One". Some people marry by condition o

Pounded yam/egusi. As in, the kind that's pounded in a mortar oh, not poundo semo.

The fact that we're able to laugh and be happy in the face of all that we go through daily.

Millionaire champagne!
I like bullion van too, and the number ten song, can't rmbr the name.

No, you didn't do anything wrong by reaching out, especially since she could have looked through your profile and seen the people you know in common.

FYI, if she's like me, she's not going to like her Facebook ID posted on social media like this.

Abi ooh! As much as I love eating suya, that much meat at night does not encourage a slim figure.

Depends on the stage of one's life, I suppose. Teens should date for the fun of it, once you hit 20, the relationship better have a future.

Goodreader is the best I've used so far. I also have another called Free Books. You can try that too in case goodreader isn't available.

Anyi3:
lol lol Topcat, Flintstones and Jetsons.

Mehn could watch those all day even when I turn old papa.

There's one with the o'malley cats that I've been trying to remember the name. Any idea?

jmoore:
Why should a female walk into the toilet while I am urinating?

Maybe the female toilet is occupied at the time.

Anyi3:
lol @ alley. You've watched too much TopCat abi na The Lady and the Tramp

Excellent, thank you.
I didn't have the nerve to discuss this topic since yesterday. I knew it wasn't a good development, but exactly how, was beyond me.

OP, I think you mean ACHIEVEMENT.

If you remember any of the lyrics, type it in Google.

LOVEGINO:
Pls sooo! I dnt know if I m wrong or something. Do you guys really enjoy watching BBA? What is so special about it n what interest you d most? D most annoying part of it, it's d shower hour. Make poverty or fame no put me, my family, friends n relation for dis kind of shame.

I just don't know how people summon the enthusiasm to sit and watch a group of strangers doing God knows what.

I want to laugh, but it might be inappropriate.

pDude:
I never saw any Kokomobile phone, Koko water bottle or Koko Garri pack yet all these products were launched.

I dunno what has become of Koko lounge and that Koko reality show was a clownish affair.

Classic example of a Jack of all trades and master of nothing.

Exactly.
To be fair though, I once saw a pack of koko garri at a friend's house in Sagamu and it was as good as promised.

Valued:
Hmm number 2 is wrong...but number three is right!

Breed of cats is wrong. . . Alley of cats nko? I feel like I've heard the correct word for it before, but can't remember it. And I no wan check Google.

1. What is the shortest english sentence that contains all the letters of the alphabet?
2. What is the collective name for a group of cats?
3. What are the next two terms after primary, secondary and tertiary?
4. Mention four english words that contain 'uu'
5. Name the two shortest english words that contain all the vowels in alphabetical order.
6. Name the only two english words that end with 'mt'
7. What is the feminine word for brethren?

2. Breed?
3. Quartenary, Quintenary?

Excellent! I'm not surprised though.

In my own case o...i go simply tell dem say na testimony of faith

Gbam. I was going to offer to split the money with the church, but I like your way better.

I just thought about this, and the first thing that came to mind is my family. That would have been my answer.

Jeez. . . . Talk about a hate thread.
I agree with the choice of Tonto Dike for the same reasons as yours. Plus, she really is a terrible actress too.

AY's jokes aren't as funny as, say, Igodye, or Bovi for instance, but you can't deny the guy's a brilliant businessman.

Banky, nitori Oloun! He's really talented, if you look beyond the foreigner act.

Diffdeef:

Actually, one should do. One needs to be careful these days. Sending several pictures of oneself to strangers isn't such a good idea oh.

Lwkmd @ poster above. See as you outline every. If na 50k dey, we use 25k to go to registry (sort out fees, take our parents for a nice lunch afterwards as no one else is invited) and the remaining 25k, we'll buy me a pretty dress out of it as consolation since I didn't get the dream wedding ladies usually want.
Whatever is left . . . Emm, emm

There's also one where he asked Amanpour whether she had ever inquired from the Queen of England when she intended to retire. That one ws just priceless! If the interview of the video is online, someone please paste the link.
