Torso, Lower Back Pain

2015-04-18 – 2015-06-01

Grade: 2

Very stiff and sore around right sacroiliac joint so went to Clinic 88 for sports massage. Big mistake. Made me a lot looser but at Parkrun on the Saturday I pulled something in the same area and from 2.5 km to the finish it seemed to get worse. Really bad when I stopped and could barely jog home.

Went to physio on the Tuesday for some gentle stretches and diagnosis. Seemed to get a tiny bit better. Back on the Friday after a longer hillier bike ride. Physio was a lot more aggressive, plus I got stuck into my exercises that evening. Result was very bad nervy pain in the same area - could hardly walk when I went to bed.

Things have improved a lot in the past 4 days.

6 weeks seems to fix most things
