Back problem

[Assertive Guy]

I spent 8+ years training from a crooked chin bar which sometimes gives me problems. The strange thing is, I can do ridiculous reps of deads and squats without being aggrevated, its when I do dumbell bench presses. The next day I feel almost like a cripple in the upper middle of the back. I have to maintain *perfect* posture to reduce the pain (an issue I will address). It's taken 4 days now and I'm almost back to normal.

Here's the point. Do I treat this area like it needs to go through this training to get stronger, or do I treat it as a problem to work around?

When your back goes out, the pain can take your breath away. Any of the normal activities of daily living – coughing, sneezing, lifting or bending -- can trigger a painful spasm or regional instability that negatively impacts your overall health and quality of life.

Back pain is epidemic in our country, with more than 21 million Americans suffering. Current treatments include medication, surgeries, manipulation physical therapy and acupuncture; and unfortunately, seem to provide little long-term relief. Exploring non-surgical solutions to pain relief is the focus of the Lordex Spine Institute. Our goal is to guide you to wellness by providing a less invasive treatment, as well as a commitment to helping you achieve a pain-free life.

All back pain can be divided into two categories, medical and mechanical. Medical includes recent fractures, tumors, infections or metabolic diseases. Women who are pregnant, or in advanced stages of osteoporosis, may be included in this group. Medical back pain represents 3% of all low back pain sufferers.

97% of people with acute or chronic back pain have what physicians refer to as mechanical spinal pathology. This means the pain is a by-product of spinal instability and may result in a herniated disk, degenerative joint disease, sciatica, facet syndrome and even canal narrowing called spinal stenosis.
