Sup /fit/. I've been getting weird back pain. The semester

I'd bet on a spinal problems - disc is pressuring on a nerve and your back hurts. Go to a doctor.

>>41427719
wow, had the same thing from this November to around March, then when started foamroaling daily, after that, it more or less dissappered.

>>41427748
That's what I'm afraid of. I can go to the doctor, but not anytime soon, hence I'd rather see if it's something stupid like my shoes or posture first.

Foamrolling - or just rubbing up against the side of a bench like a filthy animal - does help. I have a foam roller but I only ever use it after I lift. Just hit the spot, or do you have a full routine?

Try to feel the muscle, is it stiff / spasming? It could be a strain-related injury due to awkward/asymmetrical posture. Do you lean a lot whilst working in the lab? Are you right-handed and leaning on your left side whilst working? Just because it hurts when you straighten up doesn't mean it isn't caused by a weird posture at other times.

I'm quite confident it's a muscle-related injury, doctor will probably give you physio is my bet. Keep going to the gym and watch your posture.

Have some qt 3.14s to ease your suffering, you cunt.

>stiff/spasming
No stiffer than any other part of my back, motion is fine, and it's not spasming.

Yes, I lean a lot and am right handed although I do not lean on my left side side any more than I lean on my right.

Is it painful when you press down on it? Can you press on either side of your spine without any pain? Do you remember any pain when doing lat workouts?

It's probably either a muscle strain or tear to the latissimus dorsi or erector spinae muscles. I'd say try to exercise as well as you can, do lower weight, higher repetition if necessary. Look up treatment for muscle strain, do the exercises of those muscles and stretch / go through full RoM twice a day. Use paracetamol and ibuprofen and stay away from opioids if you can.

Remember I could be some LARPing faggot and see your Dr if you doubt my advice or if it remains after several weeks, gets worse or you get new symptoms.

Good luck.

I've had a herniated disc once. It wasn't awful at first aside from a sharp pain but I was hunched over for a week or two. I also threw out my back once, as in pulled my back muscles. I thought I was having a heart attack and went to the ER it was so bad. I was flat on my back unable to move for a while, advil did the trick though. I don't have the best posture but try and catch myself and correct it. When my back is sore someone walked be through some yoga poses. I don't do yoga on the reg but man you got to believe me when it relieved some back pain.

I have had pain in this exact area for over a year now, but only the right side. Stretching, foam rolling and lifting helps for a couple of minutes then the pain returns. When I sit, I feel an urge to stand up, and when standing up or walking I feel an urge to sit down. Pretty much hell on earth. Don't be like me and go see a doctor.

I just hit the spot hard as fuck.
But more concentraded on the lats, pressing hard until I feel the muscle relaxing

>>41427812
Glorious shot.

No pain at all when touching it.

I'll see a doctor when I get the chance. Thanks m8
