TBH, It sounds like the help of a very good consultant/ specialist may well be required, which might involve going private. A "normal" bit of back trouble would be well on the way to getting better by now imo. :-/

Unfortunately my job isn't the best for a weak back... Once rested again I'm confident it'll get better (as are both the Doctors I've seen and the Chiro) :y

I just need to remember that when it feels better I need to give it another week-10 days before I start doing more normal stuff ::)

Hope time cures your back Paul. At least you work for a large company who can pay you enough sick pay to live on. We're only a small firm, i know some of the rates my gaffer gets barely cover the wages & diesel so only get SSP & no other jobs for me to do. I'm still ok & on container work only though.
   Hopefully your relatively young age & fitness will see you through, although i know back problems don't discriminate. I sometimes forget i'm 48 (nearly) not 28, it's bound to all start falling apart now!!!

    REST UP!!!!!!! :y

As Amigo says, I find mine is no longer usually better in a couple of days. I also find with age that much more screws me up - even silly things like someone adjusting my chair at work.

Unfortunately I am starting to realise that I'm not as healthy as I used to be and being rather unfit doesn't help much either :-[ :-[

Still... Hopefully we're getting a Pup later this year (depending on when our friends breed theirs) so my fitness will definitely improve ::) ::)

You have my total and absolute sympathy .
I'm suffering severe back trouble just now and attending Chiropractor for manipulation and acapuncture .
I've never had back trouble but will be a lot more sympathetic to sufferers in the future .
I sincerely wish you well with a speedy recovery .

And to you :y

Did you do it doing something as silly as me? Lifting the Teapot?

One thing I have learnt though... Must give it plenty of time, even after you think you're fine ;)

Some simple physiotherapy does help.

I was on silly strength pain killers for 3 months roughly when I had my fall.

Saw the company Quack again today... Happy that the movement is now much better but won't let me back to work until I've got that movement with no painkillers in my system.

Signed me off for another month :o :o Although if I've been off the painkillers for 7 days and feel better he'll reconsider letting me back before.

TBH, my short return to work and the resultant relapse has really knocked my confidence and I'm not going to be pushing to go back this time. If it's better I'll go see him but only if I'm 100% confident.

Just so fed up with it all... And to top it all off, the place that did the MOT work on my car have introduced a rattle/vibration which is driving me potty... I'll be popping back in there this week ::)
Been there with the sore back I was born with a deformed lower vertibrate(crap speller).
When I was 20 the doctor told me to give up the joinery or i'd be in a wheel chair by the time I reach 50
I find sitting doing nothing is more painfull then keeping active mind you the tramadol helps ::) ::).
God ive love to have a pain free week but nothing can be done.
the guys at work call me the smartie tube ;D ;D

How correct you are ....
You know I was raking some tree twigs off the front lawn three weeks ago and later that evening I was in agony. Last week it gradually went away and then yesterday I lifted two 40Kg bags of coal and pulled the other side of my lower back.
I had an appointment with the Chiropractor penned in for today so when I arrived and said it's fixed but I've got another wee problem he just shook his head .
At 6'5 it would seem that my back is prone to strain when slightly stooping and I just have to be aware of that to avoid future problems.
Ho hum ..... ::)

As I said to the Doctor on Monday, the relapse has really knocked me for six and I'm not at all confident doing anything physical at the moment :(

Time will heal though :y :y
