I have been cleaning for 6 years now an di am only 25. i have large breasts and at work i bend a lot. my back is starting to hurt really bad only my upper back no lower. i was wonderting why and what can i do and is it cause of work or mt shect size?
 
It could be the breasts or it could be you are not moving/twisting/bending properly. It is hard to know. You would need to go to maybe a rehabilitation clinic for an evaluation? or call them to see if this is the place to start....but I am guessing they will ask you to start with a physical exam to be sure there is nothing else going on. I am sorry for your pain...it is hard to do your job when you are in pain all the time...it might be too that you just need a better supportive bra? good luck.
 
I agree with Ann....you may not be using proper body mechanics and at 26 years old this is a good time to learn to bend, lift, stoop properly. Especially in your physical line of work. Also, when you are working I would wear a sports bra. This holRAB your breasts close to your chest so they don't "move" while you are cleaning. These bras also have stable back support. good luck, I hope you feel better soon.

If it is your upper back you could be adversly affected by your large chest. You should see a physician - and if an examination shows that your symptoms are affected by your chest size you may want to consider a breast reduction.
