Back pain caused by injury?
I injured my back bodyboarding about three years ago , i dropped down onto the bottom of the wave and my legs stretched up towards my head and as this happened the wave broke on my legs pushing them even harder forward , i heard a crack. My lower back was really sore and burning the day it happened and my parents said it should come right by itself so i dont need to go to the doctor. After a few days the pain started to go away and the discomort went away after a few months.Also about a year and a half later i was snowboarding and did a jump but lost my balance and ended up landing on my tail bone on really hard snow,it jolted me pretty bad and i almost felt like fainting.My tailbone was sore for just over a week. Can back problems be fixed ,or is it not worth going and getting an x -ray.And if there were anything wrong with it what would it most likely be? fractured vertebrae or compressed disk or something?
Best Answer
- Basic Cobra Pose (based on Cobra Yoga Pose): Lay face down on a mat. Arms by your sides palms down. Keep your face down with your chin near your chest and lift your upper body up with your back muscles.
- Lean over so your thighs touch your chest before you sit down. You’ll be on a different part of your bottom when you sit. Sit on that part of your bottom every time you sit.
- Never lift with your back – always with your legs (if your legs aren’t strong enough then do some leg workouts)
Do this stuff regularly and things will fall back into place.

Good luck ditching this back pain
