So I have been on a profile that limits my physical activity, it was great at first but now that I have gained all of my weight back I want to get physical again. I realize it isn't easy to stick and move when you are in pain and I am not talking about pain is weakness leaving your body I am talking excruciating pain. I know I am not always gonna have pain free days but I want to run and work out like I use to. Any advice I am already seeing a physical therapist.

    I can just agree with a previous poster. Listen to what your physical therapist or dr says. They know your medical history and what is appropriate for your back pain. Not all back pain is the same.

    Good luck :)

    I highly recommend doing some yoga for lower back pain. I have really, really tight lower back muscles and have been seeing a chiropractor for most of my life. It wasn't until I started doing yoga weekly that I learned ways to stretch out those muscles and also strengthen them which has completely eliminated my back pain and daily headaches.

    Actually I don't know what's it..some months before I slipped out from stairs and injured my back..now from that day I have been suffering from back pain..so is it a chronic pain and what medications or pain relievers would be helpful?

    My sister has just been telling me about a class she has just signed up to that a therapist recommended specifically for her back problems (although it is meant to be good for various ailments including amongst others MS and arthritis, spinal and neck injuries) It is called deep water aqua running and from what I can gather all the exercises have to be done in deep water ie up to your neck as opposed to aquacise where the water might only come to your waist. The buoyancy of the water makes it far less painful and stressful on your body but you can get a really good workout.
