I threw my back out once bending over to pick up a dog's leash
was out for 3 days till the chiropractor could get it to move. Still has to be adjust once a month....that is some sad shit.
same thing happend to me last year moving a ladder wich isnt that heavy had a humongous back spasm and for the life of me i couldnt stand up straight for the rest of the day i had to crawl to my car drive home and crawl into the house i was fucked up
it happend because i didnt workout for a long period of time.
but i got over it really fast because for 2 or 3 days in a row all i did was bodyweight squats , for some reason it got everything re alined like brand new i was 30 percent better after 1 day and almost healed by day 3
i think we have back spasms if your body is too unnactive or a segment of your body is too unnactive for a period of time. for me im always active but i was realy slacking on exercise however
i think the back spasms is a reminder to keep the body active
having a spasm gives you one of two choices, seek advices from docs take there pills ect
or do whats in your heart and thats active recovery
sitting around and crying about lower back is what dieing people do when they want to die and do no physical activity
