[QUOTE="waterbuffalofarmer, post: 3396808, member: 54454"] Whereabouts is the pain? Low or upper? I had a severely bad back last year, got to the point where I could hardly walk/stand up. I had to do some excercises for it. I was watching a fitness instructor who knows about this stuff and he says that, and this is very interesting, when we are babies our bodies feeds our discs in our backs, but when we reach the age of 12 it no longer does that, so in order for the discs in our backs to be fed we have to do excercises for them, to keep them supple and working. Here are a few basic excercises for them... [MEDIA=youtube]w96TnIZ45WE[/MEDIA] Here is a vid where he shows you wha to do. However I would recommend that if you're in a lot of pain atm to not do these. I found to relieve pain I lay on my back, with help, on the floor and I put my legs stretch out and curved at the knees, straight up, then (if it is too painful for you to do) ask your wife or partner or family member to gently move your legs over onto the floor right to left, holding them down gently for 5-10 secs on each side and gently moving them over, do this about 5 times with your arms stretched out keeping your back straight all the time. Another excercise I did, with help, was to stretch both legs out on the floor and gently pull one of your legs into your stomach, leg being folded up into a curve and you hold it there with your hands for 5-10 secs, gently ease it back into the stretched out position and repeat with the other leg, do this 3-4 times each way and then relax lying there for a minute. To get up roll over onto your front and lift yourself off the floor, do not attempt to lift up yourself with your back. Hope this helps and let me know how you get on? :) Oh and I almost forgot plenty of fluids and anti inflamatories, can be achieved by taking lemon juice with warm honey and water and a grating of fresh ginger, plenty of ginger, also make sure you have a lot of oils in your diet, olive oil for example is very good and keeps the joints well oiled :) also paracetemol, not exceeding the dose, will help to relieve the inflamation. My only other advice would be rest, taking it easy and not lifting things for a long time! I also found that massaging the affected area with warm oil and a few drops of essential oils is very good for loosening it up :) All the best [/QUOTE]
