Be nice to your spine, boys and girls. It's mean when you piss it off.

Be excellent to your spine, for you will miss it when it's gone.

Hope you feel better soon.

I'm presently luxuriating in post-workout soreness. Because it's not the Serious Shoulder Issues I've been dealing with for the last many moons. It's just 'oh yeah, I worked out today and my PT added another weight machine to my routine'. Given that it was previously at the Have An MRI and Have Some Serious Pain Meds and Have Months of PT stage, this is actually somewhat welcome.

(I still kind of hate portions of my PT, but it's working so I hate it quietly.)

Ouch!

Hope you're feeling better SOON!

Real sympathy. If it keeps hurting, see a doctor. Be sure you haven't crunched a vertebra.

Particularly since it seems that if you do anything to your spine, it messes everything else up along with it.
