I injured my lower back on the right side today. Is there any surefire way to tell if it's just a strain or something worse (like a slipped disc)?I felt a kind of "pop" when it happened and immediately knew I was injured.
man up
>>75738651same thing actually happened to me a few days ago. I was doing cable kickbacks and it felt like a rubber breaking in my lower right back.That pop is usually a sign of a muscle tear.If its off to the side its likely not spinal.You think it hurts now wait til tomorrow lol.I probably have a grade 1 muscle tear. A few days in bed with heating pad and I'm already improving. I'm also enough enough roids to kill a horse so muscle recovery happens fast.I'm also on gram of bpc-157 a day for another injury (unrelated to lifting) which may or may not actually do anythingtdlr; rest for a week or two and youll be fine or maybe not
have a bump, cripple
I herniated a disc in my lower back a long time ago. I remember feeling a sliding sensation in my back followed by immediate sciatic pain. The sciatic pain lasted about 3 months. I stretched and did mobility drills to keep my hips and lower back loose it helped.
>>75738651you should see a doc immediately, anon. the "pop" is a sign of a serious injury.
