Seems like from your comments you have explored various ways of positioning the guitar. I don't know what guitar you play, but personally I am less physically comfortable playing dreads, jumbos, and the like. Guitar body depth can make a difference and is worth exploring.
Hi, and thanks for your reply. Age 50, not bad re: aches and pains otherwise. Some minor issues with chronic back pain but not in a way that seems obviously connected. But maybe you're right, and a doc is where I should start.

I generally play OMs/OOO-size guitars -- I moved away from dreads a long time ago.
