Re: Lower back pain
There is a sports injury clinic very close to where I live, I will see if he can refer me there. I love my GP, he is a down to earth, great guy.

Re: Lower back pain
if you get a ref to go to see a chiro or pt make sure you look for sports specialists and not just random clinics. i always check to make sure whoever i see works with athletes regularly before i will let them touch me. it is also a plus if they are athletes as wellOriginally posted by cybrsage View PostLeave a comment:

If you go to a chiropractor, find one who is trustworthy and not someone just trying to milk your insurance and empty your walletLeave a comment:

Re: Lower back pain
Welcome to the place where you will find 9 out of 10 of us have low back issues
. On a good note, that brings you an abundance of ideas and helpful tips to aid in your training and relief. My foam roller has been my buddy for years. Try and use it daily and super important to roll all leg and glute muscles as tight ones play hell on our low back and hips. Something we often overlook is good/proper footwear. A great area to start and make sure you are wearing good shoes.. especially if you say you experience increased pain upon walking and running certain distances. Keep us posted and roll roll roll.

Re: Lower back pain
I broke my back and neck in a car accident way back when. I have been going to every type of therapy out there. including homeopathic. The Rheumatologist that I have been seeing for the last 5 years has only addressed the pain side of my situation. He pumps me full on narcotics! I have more opiates then the pharmacies lol. Truth be told my thoughts are that one day I myself will address the pain one last time. Till then I get by one day at a time.Leave a comment:

Re: Lower back pain
i have compressed verts in my lower back starting at my tail bone going up three verts from a blast back in 05. i got sent to pt and all that crap for about a year and a half and it didnt do anything good for me at all. so much so that i completely stopped doing squats deads or anything that put pressure on it to try to get it healed up. now i still have it flair up on me from time to time today but what i did to get mine back to where it didnt kill was this: i did 3-6 sets of 10 on hyper extensions every day post workout. i did deads on back day to a weight that i could tolerate and i trained abs eod. some days i had to wait about 10 mins or so before i left but it got so much better once i got it conditioned. now i dont do the hypers with the same frequency as i did when i was rehabbing it myself but i do roll before and after i train i stretch before and after and i see a chiro that i trust weekly to be adjusted. he also does some active release stuff on me as well to open everything up. big thing with lower back issues if you dont have an actual busted vert is we tend to not push them to condition so it can stand the load we place on it.Leave a comment:

Re: Lower back pain
Forgot to tell, I am 46. I do not consider myself old, but I also do not consider myself young either. I have been told I LOOK like I am in my 30s, though.

Re: Lower back pain
I bought a lifting support belt to help me for now and will get a roller to help me afterwards. Used the belt tonight during squats and it really did help. Once I get the pain to go away, I will work on strengthening the other muscles my back is obviously making up for.
Thanks you guys, you have been great help. My wife will love using the roller on me, especially if it hurts!Leave a comment:
