Hi At your age, improper posture and prolonged sitting can lead to spine problems. If you don't take proper care, these may increase. Massages will not help you with it. Try the following: *Do Bhujangasana (start with 5 counts per day and slowly increase the number of counts till you reach 40 counts per day) *Avoid sitting sleeping on a stool/chair for more than 15 minutes at a time. After every 15 minutes, get up for 1 minute and then sit back again. This is very important! *Whenever you sit on a stool/chair sit ahead on the edge of the chair/stool...this way you will automatically sit straight. Don't sit behind and try to get back support...you will involuntarily bend your spine and increase your back problem. *Avoid sitting on soft sofas. *Avoid bending forward with your knees straight. Bend your knees and then bend forward. *Avoid riding bike/car as much as possible until your subsides.
Next Steps
Follow the above steps and do let me know if you are better after 1 week.
