Dam Back Pain

[CrystalChick]

Ugggg I have had this lower back pain for like 1-2 months.
Im not to sure how it started but It hurts when I sit
especially on a hard surface... no funnies here

What could this be?

Thanks CC

It seems to be in curve of my back and it really hurts when I lean forward and dull pain when I twist my hips

 

[CrystalChick]

Yes, what can I do? I was thinking about going to a
Sports Medicine Dr. but I was hoping I could help myself first.

 

[CrystalChick]

What if it hurts

 

[CrystalChick]

Actually it's right where my erectors are, no I have not done any hot/cold therapy.
I think this started when I did Stiffs... never had a problem though.
I have contiuned to excersise with this pain but it's not getting any better duh.... so maybe I should lay off any excersises that require lowerback type movement.

What do you think?

 

[CrystalChick]

Ok but what excercises could I do? besdes goodmornings?

 

[CrystalChick]

Ok I think reverse hypers will help.. Great thanks so much for the help Spatts.

i know about lower back pain - had for nearly 4 months!

sounds exactly like what u have..hurts when i sit.
my oesteopath told me i was too 'flabby' on the back of my hips - as those muscles support the lower back - bastard..made me feel like a freakin' whale!

anyway..he told me to do this exercise:
lie on ure tummy, legs together and toes pointed, raise legs using your glutes to raise and lower legs. keep your upper body still.

im gonna start doing that...hmmm..we'll see. you should try it too..tell me what you think

 

[CrystalChick]

Ok, I will try it I hope it helps I will let you knowwhat happens.

Thanks CC

If you've had pain for 1-2 months you need to go see a doc and get an x-ray. Don't mess around with back pain bacause it can really effect the rest of your body.

Go see a D O C T O R, so he can take X R A Y S!!!!!!! If the active recovery and other stuff is not working you could have a bona fide(sp) injury to one of your disks.
