Any advice about severe lower back pain?
It wasn't even caused by a serious injury, I was just working on my car (bending over a lot) for a few hours one day, and even 2 weeks later I'm still in on and off pain. Most of the time it's mild if I'm careful and move slowly and deliberately but if I trigger it, it can be very severe.
It was ok for the last few days because I made sure to rest, not bend over, not drive (stupid sports car seats :( ), but as soon as I had to do some chores today and I bent over (stupid idea I know) the pain was nearly crippling and it took a lot of effort just to move around not just fall to the floor and make noises until it calmed down.
I'm probably going to make a doctors appointment, but do you guys think a chiropractor could help? My mom told me to go to one but I thought they were bogus.

Physio might help more, but definitely go to the doctor. My friend ignored hers and let it gradually get worse and now she's basically got chronic back pain because she ignored it for so long.
