Can barely move, not good when your a self employed bricklayer, never had a bad back before so its killing, never realised just how much you use your back, i know that sounds silly but anyone whose hurt theres before will know what i mean.

go see an acupuncturist mate, but make sure its one thats also a qualified physio,

i have had quite a bad football injuries, especially last year. worst of them being bad whiplash on my shoulder and a treatment in the acupuncturist sorted me right out, trust me i didnt believe in it until i went myself

I'll give it a couple of days and see. Losing £150 a day is not ideal.

i slipped a disc in my back a few years ago when i was about 20ish. did it playing indoor footy and being driven to the hospital was so bad it was untrue.

best advise i got was take pain killers and put the mattress on the floor, so there's no give in the mattress when i was sleeping. to be honest it helped a fair bit, i got my dad to take my mattress and everything off my bed and put it on the floor in the front room and i slept down there for the next 4 or 5 days.

So what? I'm not gonna bloody rub it for ya.

Just kidding! makes realise how many times you flex your back muscles every day. If you've pulled a muscle do some slow stretches to recover quicker.
