HELP! Anyone ever sprained their back?

[Slyder190]

I just saw a new chiropractor today and he told me that I sprained my back and that I could possibly have a herniated disc, but it's not clear if my problem is with a disc or my tailbone. Obviously, there will be no workouts this week. Has anyione ever sprained their back before or had a problem with a disc? I'm praying I can get back into the gym in a weeks time, 2 weeks the very latest.

No, but, I have some clients that I work with that have back problems. Though, I don't understand why they would go to a personal trainer for that type of problem, but oh well I don't care it pays my bills!!

I sprained my back about 4 months ago and it still hasn't healed. I went to the doctor and he gave me some antiflamatories and a kind of steroid. He told me to take it easy for a while which I did but right when I tried using my back again it started to hurt. I'm going back to the doctor next week.
