Back is killing me

Use a back support belt. It really helped me when doing food service. It was so good I wore it most of the time. Walmart sells them and also Google for other locations.

 

Start a brisk walking routing; that's all you need. Jogging is the worst excercise because it puts wear and tear on all the body joints.

 

You have an inflammation problem. Ibuprofin, Ice, rest. The rest is the most important. I use a Chinese lineament called "Dit Dat Jow". Sometimes it works wonders. You can get it from an herbalist or from some martial arts supply stores. The oil-based Jow works the best.

 

Bah! You bunch of quacks!

Get your GP to write you a script for a couple of sessions at a Physical Therapist. Tell them what's going on - and they'll give you a bunch of simple stretches and exercises that'll strengthen the weak muscles.

That - and a GOOD Chiropracter - usually an independent fairly fresh out of med school (yes, they have to do 7 years hard time).

Weak scapula muscles usually at the root of a lot of it.

 

Good idea; some of those new female chiropractor med school grads are real hotties.

 

On top of that, go buy this -

I've gotten them for my drivers who complain about back problems, it has helped all of them with it.

Don't buy the knockoffs, I tested a few and they really can screw your back up.

 

I would go to Taiwan massage parlor. They work wonders!
