Yet another sleepless night due to wicked back pain and spasms.
Compressed discs are such fun, aren't they?
Even the T3's ain't helpin' things

Back pain is the worst. I've dealt with it in the past. Is your's from an accident?

No accident. Degenerative arthritis that compressed the soft tissue between the discs. And too many heavy lifting jobs over the years.Originally posted by LiveDose
It only flares up occasionally and sidelines me for a few days.
I've had it checked out by half a dozen chiros over the years...and there's not much they can do. Just gotta grin and bear it mostly.Comment

Sounds like ya need to seek professional help there, for sure.
TurboAngel has back problems sometimes, but it sounds like you have a serious situation there.

My old man had a history of them, too. I seem to follow in his footsteps that way.Originally posted by TurbofaceSounds like ya need to seek professional help there, for sure.

Thanks to ya'll for the helpful advice and suggestions. Yeah, don't we know we're all gettin' to be old fogeys...
Just gotta bite the bullet and get the back workin' again. Actually, earlier in the day I forced myself to work on a photoshoot in the studio - that seemed to help loosen it up a bit. And with the big snow on its way tonite, no doubt shovelin' the driveway may help, too.
Or kill me

Along with posture...I've had several chiro's tell me a lot has to do with ab muscles. Once the abs start to get soft, it often leads to more back problems.Originally posted by sniperwolfComment
