right - so yesterday i decided to bath the dog, followed by scrubbing the bathroom top to bottom.
now i'm crippled with agony back.
have overdosed on paracetamol, ibuprofen and codeine washed down with red wine. i've sat in a bath, had a hot bottle, rested and also kept moving.
it still hurts.
ouch.
can't afford a chiropracter/physio. don't think drs will be open tomorrow - also don't really want to spend christmas high as a kite (although maybe thats a good idea)and avoiding alcohol.
have had a dodgy back on and off for years - goes with the job - but thats always been a particular muscle higher up. this is at the bottom - accross both hips and is shooting down my thighs.
it really really hurts.
any ideas?

Lie on your side with your knees bent.

Another hot bottle or ice pack if you can stand it.

Don't overdose on the tablets anymore though.
You could call NHS direct for advice as well.

You have my symphathy my back is dodgy too.
