Stupid stupid back injury

[CougheeBean]

So I’ve fucked my back. Riding high on the buzz of my fitness kick, I decided I could pick up DP in a fireman’s lift. Good news - I can! But now I can’t walk. My spine is curved forward at the base, I can’t stand up straight, I can’t pick anything up, and walking is a painful shuffle. I properly look like a hunchback.

I’ve been guzzling ibuprofen and using ice to no avail. I’m so annoyed with myself. I won’t be able to exercise for at least this week, will I? I’ve tried gentle yoga but it only gave relief for ten minutes. I really want to get going again ASAP but how?!

Oh no!!! Can you get anywhere for a sports massage? I've been for one and the girl was amazing, she knew exactly where my back was out of line etc it was agony and I was sore for a couple of days after but it was so worth it. Would really recommend, especially if you are doing sports regularly! I hope you feel better soon!

That’s an excellent idea - I’m in London so I’m sure I could find one! Do they have to be expensive to be good? (I’m wondering whether Groupon might be able to help!)

I’m supposed to be kickboxing tomorrow, that would be funny, I’d look like a vicious crab.

A groupon one should be fine normally done by someone newly qualified sometimes you can find them on there for 3 sessions or more for practically the price of one.
