I've been having severe back pain for a while now lower back, middle, even up to my shoulders. It's been two years since my uterus was removed due to stage 1 cervical cancer, and my follow-up ultrasounds every three months show everything's normal, including my ovaries. The X-rays are clear too, but the pain won't go away. It's really affecting my daily life and mental peace. What could be causing this constant back pain even though all my reports are fine? Any suggestions on how to manage it?

I've been cracking my fingers in an unusual way, like sideways, which puts a lot of pressure on my joints. It's become a bad habit over the years. Now, the joints have grown, but theres no pain or tightnessjust feels a bit odd, though it seems normal to me. The thing is, it doesnt look normal; there's growth around the joints, especially the IP joints. When I touch them, it feels like theres extra tissue, and I can move it without any pain. Im curious about what this could be. Any ideas what's going on with my fingers?
