So my back hurts

It’s really put me in a funk. I could barely walk earlier. It’s my lower back on the left side. I heard once that lower back is usually less serious than upper back hurting? I don’t wanna go to the chiropractor unless it keeps up…any advice. I think a disc is just rubbing the wrong way. It’ll fix itself naturally hopefully

You could ask your doc for gabapinton…it helps with my back pain and its non narco…it has very little side effects but sometimes it affects my balance …

Hey ttp,

I herniated a disc in my lower left back. It hurt to put my sox on, because it was pressing against a nerve. I had surgery on it.

Last week I bent down to tie my shoe and thought I re-herniated it. I could barely get up to walk, after sitting. The pain seems to be getting better, although I was sure I herniated again.

Hard to tell you what. Just keep tabs on it, if it doesn’t go away, get an Mri to see if you herniated a disc.

I had some gabas I just threw out! They were expired though. I see him next Friday if it keeps up maybe I’ll ask him and we can be gabapentin bros :high five: but I hope it subsides before then

Another way that may help is stretching everyday when you wake up and before you sleep…just don’t push it too hard…start small…
