Upper back pain
« on: May 01, 2011, 05:52:01 AM »
I was doing some brutal curls yesterday and my upper back got this throbbing pain when i picked up the weights.  the whole upper back stiffened and turned into what felt like a single plate.  it hurts like shit and i couldn't sleep all night.

apparently, it's not that uncommon.  but i need to take "muscle relaxers" until the pain goes away.  is there something other than nubain i can take?

you just gotta let it run its course. You'll be back to normal in 10 days. I've had similar injuries doing that shitty move. When I got serious with BB rows and front neck raises with a harness, never got that problem again.

Hot Cum = Negro?

Oh...how creative...the negro and tranny jokes?  ::)

i listed the best prescription tablet to take care of your ills.  now, take me up on the offer. 

i'll even include 10L high flow O2 to slow down the process.  ::)

Oh crap..I had the same injury, along with a shoulder one...(in the same workout). The shoulder recovered fast, 3-4 days.
But the back, It took me a week and a half to see improvements. I took nothing, no painkillers, no topical solutions..nothing just continued to lift but with caution.

When you bend your head downwards or when you lean it left/right, does your "spine" hurt ? Mine did.

Cyanide.

Thanks.  Flooding his system with 10L O2 might slow the bonding process (no scientific evidence to prove it), which might give him a couple of extra seconds to say, f##k G_Thang.  Back pain cured, you bitch, boycubpiglet.

Something involving codeine?

HCN3 is a gene fool.

Though I doubt the writer knows any chemistry and what he wrote was unintended.

Look like you're the fool. It's cyanide like someone else said. Epic trying to sound like you know what you're talking about though ::)

CH4 is a Mexican's best friend after bad green chili.  Bonds are easily broken when boycubpiglet is sniffing around where he shouldn't.

I get this once or twice a year, I think it's a pinched nerve.  Goes away in a few days.

Souns like a pinched nerve bro.

I get the same thing at times and sometimes it really fucks up my training for long periods of time depending on the severity.

Once because of a pinched nerve,I benched 135 for 1 crooked rep.........took many months to correct itself.  :(
