My lower back has been hurting the last couple of weeks, I have never had a problem with my lower back and I hope this is not the beginning of another problem.
I fucked up my left knee again over Easter and my hip on the left side has been in pain because of the limping around... I think this is the reason why my lower back is suffering too, not sure. Basically, there is no pain when I am standing or sitting or even cycling, I don't feel any pain when doing most things. Pain is only felt with I am bending foward to let say pick something up, or trying to touch my toes (I don't do it regularly, but you get what I mean). As soon as I bend down, withing seconds, the pain kicks in, it's more like that really tired feeling, the slightly burning sensation all over my lower back, as soon as I stand properly again, the feeling goes away within seconds...
I am waiting for an MRI scan of my knee, in the meantime, should I visit the GP about the back pain or not? I have never found visit to GP that useful for any kinds of pain...
