So Dave and I went out back to pick Black raspberries , well they are small .. Any hoo on the way out .. Dave has some wood laying on the ground in the lane, he helped me over it , but when he went over it he fell , very gently , he didn't even spill the berries , any hoo we came up to the house and ate dinner, then he promptly fell asleep in his chair, well when he went to get up he could barley move , He took a muscle relaxer ... I hope he is ok , I am very worried about him, he throws steel for a living so I know he will not go to work, he seems to think he is ok but ... We will see, may spend the day in the ER tomorrow, this happend about 6 or 8 months ago also .. Sigh!!!

Hey Wendy,
Along with the muscle relaxers, a couple of asprin helped me too as they are good for inflammation.
Hope he is doing better now!

Wendy, is he having lower back pain or middle back ? Those could be a muscle pulled , or a misalignment of muscle/tendons and or disc.
Does he have pain shooting down his legs?--- If so that's due to injury/ pinched the sciatic nerve , should get to Dr. if that's the problem . Its a bit more serious than a pulled muscle. When I injured mine , couldn't sit-- walk or lay down without pain , it was terrible. Chiro can help that but takes awhile to get it all worked out.
I know there are exercise to help strengthen the back muscles, but those can't be done while back is hurting . The Mayo clinic site has some listed if you want to check them out for future use. I can't find my link into it off hand --- figure I deleted it when cleaning up awhile back.
Wishing him a speedy recovery soon !
Back pain can be such a witch to deal with..
