I hurt my back about 1.5 months ago. Usually, I'll over do something, or pick up something with poor form. After a couple days, I'm as good as new.
Not sure what I did this time. But the pain keeps coming back. Mostly I hurt it again when bent over, changing the babies diaper.
Its a wierd pain, kidney area of the small of my back, down thru my hip. Its a sharp pain, and fades once I am stationary. Its only on the right side now, but for a while it was both. It stiffens up when I sit. Hurts when I bend my head forward to get into my small car (I am tall).
Usually I get better fast. Wife is nagging me to go the docs, but I think the doc will just say take Advil and quit lifting stuff. Trouble is, my daughter is 2 and I'm always lifting her and bending over changing her diaper.
I guess I should call the doc and spend the $20 copay... Anyone had a similar issue? Am I just getting old?
