Baby Got Back...

...back problems, that is. I did something last Saturday that really f'ed up my lower back. I have NO idea what it was. I don't recall doing anything strenuous, lifting anything heavy, tripping, stepping wrong, nothing. And yet, a week later, it's giving me some serious trouble

Oddly, I screwed mine up about the same time and by now it's getting to hurt pretty bad.

I'll be taking myself to Performance Wellness (my favorite chiropractor) soon, and I would recommend to anyone that they start with chiropractic unless it's clearly something that requires internal medicine or a trip to the ER.

Weird. Another friend of mine also hurt his around the same time.

Hope yours feels better soon.

Thanks for the chiro recommendation!

they == both

Chiropractors (and lawyers) are my natural enemy, but as long as they are not wrenching your neck around, the damage is probably minimal.

The neck. Carotid dissection: Bad.

Yikes. And here I was thinking that neck cracking thing felt so good.

But then, I thought lawyers were good, too, so what do I know?

Thanks! Yay for good chiropractors!
