JanRight…soooo I hurt my back today…
..by twisting. o.O
I was standing at work this morning and twisted sharply to look at something behind me. Moments later my back was killing me. I have never had back pain like this before. Ever. I could barely stand upright and walking is awful. I can sit without much pain and bending over relieves the pain as well. But I walk very, very slowly…and slightly stooped over.
I made an emergency trip to the chiropractor this afternoon, and he says I have an acute facet joint injury. As he explained it, when I twisted, the joint sort of ‘jumped the track’ and got out of alignment. That caused the surrounding muscles to spasm, hence the extreme pain I’m in. This link explains it a little bit better.
He told me to:
- Stay off my feet as much as possible.
- Take OTC pain meds.
- Ice packs only - no heat
- Call him on Monday and let him know how I’m doing.
So…I may not be around much this weekend. Depends on how I’m feeling and how well I’m able to move. *sigh* :(
