1. Oh no, that's terrible.

Nothing OTC works on that kind of pain. Do you have any idea how you did it?

8. No, it was fucking dumb.

I thought after two months of working out, I'd be in shape enough to handle it. Guess not.

9. Did you stretch first?

Stretching is a must... and failure to properly stretch causes injury no matter
what your physical condition.

Don't make me get out... THE RACK!

REPORT TO THE RACK!

10. I did, I swear. I thought my accident injury was cured.

It is NOT!

BTW, the RACK sounds like fun.

18. Remember to switch to COLD. I had a horrible back injury like that and was

putting heat on it. Finally I thought about cold and......the pain got a lot better! Cold stops the inflammation which can be the cause of a lot of the pain.

Drive the wrong way down route 41 and get it the fuck over with.

29. I'm not elderly and I can't do those squats.

The cartilage of my knees would give way.

33. My thought is that overworking your body will age you, too.

But let's face it, I know nothing. :shrug:

13. Gray, if you can get on a heat pad or

in and out of a warm shower, please do so.
Doing both would really help.

Call your doctor and have him/her prescribe some
muscle relaxants ( Flexeril is good) and pain meds.

You need both right now, since you are SOL with the back.

Believe me, lady- I've been there, done that
Many,many times!

I'm an orthopedic nightmare.

Good luck and get some relief,
pronto.

23. Crap! Really- try the heat,

a heatpad or a shower, as warm as you can stand it
pelting down on your back, right where it hurts.

I've done the warm/hot shower every night for four days now
and I haven't had to take relaxants/pain meds, yet.

My back has been crappy for over a week, this time around.

Good luck!

I really know what that feels like.

19. I wish I lived closer to you.

I could gently massage most of the pain away.

Take it easy until you feel better ~ no deep-sea diving today. Okay?

Maybe I'll send him anyway.

24. Back pain sucks. I pulled something 2.5 years ago, and spent a month recovering.

Get thee to a doctor. Tomorrow. I tried toughing it out for a while before seeing a doc, and that just made things worse.

35. If it's any consolation, I recovered completely.

Now my lower back is one of my strongest muscle groups.
