Post Aweful story
So I am 26 and start experiencing extended lower back pain. I decide to see a doctor after about 2 weeks of pain that won't go away. I see the doc and tell him I haven't been able to lay comfortably on my stomach for years and that I had thought I hurt my back when I was 16 playing hockey. He does a full exam and decides to take xrays. After the bullshit 45 min wait after the xray the doc comes in and says well your right. You hurt your back when you were younger. It seems you damaged 1,2,3 vertebrae in your lower back when you were a kid. What do you mean damaged? Well you fractured your back, you healed, but not in the right way and that is why you hurt. What??? Well what can we do. Besides PT, next to nothing. It will improve your quality of life, but you will always have pain and will never be able to comfortably lay on your stomach again. But I seen a Doc when i was 16 and he said I was fine. Well I guess you should have gotten a second opinion. Now I have the fun of contemplating whether I should pursue a doctor who fucked up 10 years ago.......

PT, also, look into yoga for back pain. And breathing techniques. And a chiropractor.

Maybe he was a shit chiro, just saying. Also, if those vertebrae were fractured years before you went, there's not much he could do with misshapen bones.

Fucked my back up when I was 17. Now 26.

Stretching helps a lot. I went to a chiro for a few years, worked out pretty good. It all depends on how it's damaged really.

ouchies.. hope you find something to help your pain. I fell off a roof in 08 and fucked a vertabre in my middle left back. stretching is helpful and i go to the chiro it helps a lil, but the chiro told me i had to start sleeping with just a towel rolled up as my pillow under my neck and putting a pillow under my thighs close to the backs of my knees to help me relax my back muscles and that makes a huge difference.

back injuries are extremely hard to diagnose but if you have this doc and proof it was an injury from that one incident then yes pursue

If you do want to pursue the doctor from 10 years ago make sure you check the statute of limitations on that before hiring a lawyer. I believe in most matters its usually 5-7 years. I could be wrong with medical malpractice though.

that blows ass dude. My back is mangled. Ive been punched, kicked, kneed, stepped on you name it from soccer. It gets horrifingly bad when I go for a jog and the pain in my lower back will literally seize all the muscles from my lower back into my shoulders and I cant breathe properly for 10 mins. ITs rare but HOLY SHIT does it F*CKING suck. Like Strange said stretching really really helps.
