I had my physio check-up today. For the past three weeks my back has been awesome. Then things went south on Sunday. Today the pain is still there and to make things worse, I was rushing to my appointment and slipped on some ice. I didn't fall but I sure jarred my back. Ouch.
My PT decided to work on my back to try and get some of my lower back muscles to relax. He used ultra sound, soft tissue massage, and then acupuncture.
I was nervous at first but the idea of having the pain relieved waaay out weighed my fear of having a needle stuck in my back. Except for the last needle, it wasn't too bad. I'm sure I will do it again.
I'm still in pain but I think it's getting better. The PT said I need to work on unloading my back. Which means laying on the ground with my legs up on the couch. So, I guess I have my day planned out for me.

Oh man Teagan, your poor back has been through so much! I hope it does keep getting better for you, because back pain is the worst.
