What kind of dr for back pain?
I have had on and off back pain since I moved into my house last July. I think it is getting worse. I have severe stiffness and it feels like a section of my spine is bruised but there is no visual mark or bump.
I need to figure out what is going on because not my right side under my back ribs is even sore.
I am pregnant so i am not sure what a dr can even do to diagnisee or treat me.
Should I go to my GP or an orthopedist or a rheumatologist or a chiro?
TIA

Orthopedist first to get a diagnosis and then see if s/he'll send you to physical therapy or a chiropractor. Not sure how being PG will fit into it, but an Othopedist should still be able to diagnose you.

I say see a chiropractor. Mine has helped me a lot. He was even amazing during my pregnancy.
