Moving some stuff in the yard and my back locked up….BIG TIME. It is not back spasms, but pain in my lower back (C7 area if I were to guess). I have iced the area….ingested 2 Alieve….soaked in hot shower….laid on floor on my back for 3 hours…it is worse.
Give me advice. :inbeforeIambeingapussy:

You sound like you aren't real bright

You are going to be in pain for days.

Try to move around and stretch. Don't lay down. That's the big mistake. I pull my back once a year and this was the fastest way to recover. Don't lay down.

C7 isn't in your lower back.

Please stop guessing. Your C7 is in your neck.
Go to one of the after hour clinics if you're in that much pain. They will give you pain meds or send you to the ER if its THAT bad.

I would think heat would be a much better solution than ice in this scenario. Good luck.

Oh, that flight to Philly on Monday is going to be real fun

Yeah, saying C7 not smart….let's try L7.
Tried stretching and moving after ice. It is so bad, I have to have assistance to pull my self up straight.

There is no L7.
Go to the damn after hours clinic and stop trying to guess at anatomy.

Ah frick it. If I can move out of the bed, I'll head to the clinic.

3 words. Kroger little clinic
Posted on 10/4/14 at 2:36 pm to WildcatMike
That's a good idea.

Need me to come drive you?

I've had a ruptured disc between L4&5. Once the inflammation calms down some, you need to walk. Keep those muscles limber.
