I have screwed my back (sciatic nerve or something else) on a deadlift sans belt and then aggravated carrying a suitcase. Any top tips for healing?
Ridiculous pain in butt and down to my left ankle. A physio has given me some exercises and they may be helping a bit but not that much.
Internet wisdom varies wildly; train through the pain (Starr method, Alan thrall) to ‘your spine is f*cked you need surgery and will never lift again.’
Had this happen to me two years ago. I trained through the pain. One day while doing heavy deadlifts something clicked in my back and pain just disappeared.
No one should take any advice from me tho.
