Hurt my back
- Related Injuries: Back
August 26, 2020
Hi there,
I’ve hurt my back. Yesterday I was following a 15 minute Joe Wicks HIIT session (on YouTube), and while I was doing burpees I landed awkwardly after the jump and felt a pain in my lower back. The pain is lingering, and while I am able to move it’s painful.
Can you advise what action I should/could take? I’m sticking to gentle stretches and Feldenkrais lessons today.
Best wishes,
Dewi.

Hi Dewi – sounds like a good plan.
Do take some anti inflams (if you can) and keep on with the active rest (doing something and not avoiding activity).
Give it another 24/48 hours and you’ll be good to go.

Dear Guru,
Thank you very much for getting back to me so quickly, and for the support and advice. I will do as you say and try the anti-inflammatories, and see how things are in 24/48 hours.
Best wishes,
Dewi.

Good Luck Dewi – let me know if you’re not feeling almost fully fighting fit at the weekend.
