Just when things started to get back to normal, I pushed it a little to hard doing some reorganizing in the workshop, I threw my back out big time. I been laid up since Friday, in severe pain. I’m still laid up, but on the mend. I need to get caught up on all the new posts, has today is the first day I been able to get online.
Man, why is everyone hurting their backs? Finally today I pulled a muscle late last week it’s feeling better, my mom threw her back out Saturday, my finances grandmas back is bad…

Sorry to hear man, hope you feel better soon!
Sorry to hear that my friend …..
rest easy, heal quickly !!!
Sorry to hear that, I know the feeling. I have 3 herniated discs and I was off work for over a year back in 04 when I hurt it. I got used to the pain since they wouldn’t operate because I was too young at the time. Ibuprofen is the best thing that helps me now. Good luck

Jimbos right, backs are very commonly injured, thats an awful feeling, nothing you need to be sorry about wigwag! Rest up and take care of your back!
Guy at work slipped a disk and has been off work for close to two months! It sucks majorly because he can’t work and pay bills. He got shots in that area to help with swelling now its physical therapy to get him back on track. He threw out his back BOWLING!! Good grief….
Anyways, do you have a time period you have to stay off your feet or are you able to get up and around?

Sorry to hear you hurt your back but I’m glad it’s on the mend. Hope you feel better buddy
Hope you feel better dude!
Thanks All!!
Well, it’s Thursday and the first day I been out of the bed. Still in a ton of pain, and have to use a walker, but made it to the office for a bit. This really sucks when this happens, feeling so helpless. But things are looking up, and hopefully will be able to walk downstairs soon. Kinda of a bummer being stuck on the 2nd floor lol.

I took my kids tobogganing when they were younger and like a fool I said watch daddy go down the hill standing up…….I went about 4 feet and fell backwards on the toboggan….I got up ok but next morning I could not move. I thought it was over felt like I was broke in 2 pieces. took about 3 weeks to subside……..I don’t wish back pain on anyone……thank christ it didn’t stay with me…….
I somewhat feel your pain……best of luck dude….

Glad to hear your on your feet bro! Take it day by day my friend!
Update: Yup, still laid up! I posted last Thursday that I was able to make it to the office for a bit, but when I woke up Friday it was massive pain again. Today is Sunday and moving about a bit, but still in bed. Hopefully tomorrow I will be able to attempt sitting again.
Feel better bud don’t push it!

Yeah man take it easy. Being down in the back sucks. I can never seem to find a good position to get comfortable.

let the body heal bro don’t push it to much man.
Take it slow man
Go slowwwww … And get your rest !!
Steven sorry to hear man,I know all too well what having a hammered back is like. when i was a teenager i was badly injured in a car accident. My back has never been the same since. Taking anti inflamatories like ibuprofen help me out fairly often,also stretching them muscles in the back helps alot,especially ifyou are able to do it in a hot shower. It can be done while laying down too just gotta go a little at a time.
I hope your feeling better wig.
Take Two! Back up and moving around a bit, hoping to be back to “normal” by Friday. I still have not attempted the stairs yet, but will try that later on today.
Glad your moving around a bit …
be careful on those stairs
