lower back pain

You know its' the odt when we start out talking about serious lower back pain and 9 pages later we are talking about guerrilla warfare and getting high
I will be 28 this weekend and my back is destroyed. I've had 3 herniated discs in lower back since I was like 22. I will get sciatica really bad for a few months then it will go away, then come back again. I will eventually need surgery, but being as young as I am it wouldn't be the best idea yet. Go to the ortho and get x-rays and a MRI if needed. Keeping my core strength helps as it takes some of the pressure off. Best of luck. A messed up back is not fun.
damn dude that sucks.
ill say it again, hearing some of yalls troubles makes my back feel better since im no where near what some of yall deal with
a buddy of mine has one of those inversion things you hook your feet into and flip yourself over to hang upside down. i was house sitting for him once while he was out of town and thought i'd give it a go. I climbed in, hooked my ankles, leaned back, and damn near knocked myself unconscious on the floor. didn't occur to me that those things are adjusted to the persons height and he's about 6 inches shorter than i am.......saw stars for sure!
I have had issues since '92. Industrial accident.
Lift properly
Good boots (Redwing for me)
Firm Mattress (Got a foam thingy)
I stretch my back in the mornings. I'll pull my knees up to my chest before I get up, then sit on the side of the bed with my feet on the floor, cross one leg bend over, then the other leg. This really stretches my problem areas. I see a good chiro when it gets too far out of whack. I've had good chiros and bad chiros. When I get my back adjusted it is sore but a relief. I think I have a touch of (scoliosis) crooked back. Too hot of shower in the morning relaxes my back too much so I avoid them. Pain is slight most days until I over work my back.
