sore for the nest 3 days in that same
area. I got some x-rays done of that area
and they told me that everyting looked ok.
I also get this pain from mowing the lawn
or when i bend down for a long period of
time. My docotr said that im 20 pounds
overwight and he told me to do sit ups but
the oposite way. Does anyone have any
sugestions in what it can be or something
i shoul try doing? Pleas help cause im
barely 18 and im already having problems,

years from now. I rarely exercise and i

Back Pain And Racing Quads Posted: 10-20-07 19:05pm
Hello Lagunasalada,
You may like to race quads in the desert,
however, things like that and mountain
bikes are known to cause back problems.
You are only 18 and should not have back
pain.
You really have but one choice - No more
racing quads or you will end up having a
life of back pain. Just read through the
many threads about back pain.
I would highly recommend that you seek the
advice from a neurologist.
PLEASE for your own sake, LISTEN to your
back. Don't do things that bother it and
cause pain.
