I am 34 years old. I was told after having an xray because I was experiencing back pain about 4 years ago that I have SBO. I have quite a large 'dimple' at the base of my spine, but no hair growth from it. My mother took me to see her GP when I was a baby and they just told her 'not to worry'. I also experience fatigue and headaches but I exercise regularly and find that this really helps my lower back pain. I was advised about what exercises to do by a physiotherapist and would recommend that anyone who is able to exercise and strengthen the back muscles does so as these support the spine.
