I've read the sticky

Since about two-three months now I've been experiencing mild lower back pain. It started as a rather sharp pain first when I sat myself in the car after what I'm assuming was poor form squats/deadlifts.

I stopped doing the exercises altogether for about a week and the pain diminished. Started doing the exercises again and the pain came back, not as sharp but still noticeable.

I tried not doing the exercises for about three weeks, but a slight pain lingered, especially noticeable when flexing my lower back.

Went to see a physiotherapist about a week ago and he said they can't really do much, but he showed me a couple of meme exercises which were meant to relieve the pain. Sometimes they help a bit, but it's still scary to do (heavily deloaded) squats and deadlifts with this going on. He said it's likely a disc bulge.

Now I'm doing heavily deloaded deadlifts, no squats what so ever, then the typical benching and chin-ups and shit like that. At these weights there's not a lot of pain, but still noticeable.

I'm kind of at a loss for ideas here. Should I stop doing any exercises altogether that may put strain on my lower back? Including OHP? I'm taking caution to really brace my core when doing them.

Any help is highly appreciated, thanks in advance
