    What would you recommend for recovery with herniated discs? I used to do a ton of HIIT and then injured my back in lockdown through something non related. I couldn't walk for months and since have never fully recovered, anything I attempt puts me back to where it was after two months of recovery.
    It's never gone right, I've had MRIs which now show the discs are no longer herniated but I can't get back into anything exercise wise due to pain. The pain in centralised around T12-L3 but also has meant my glutes are completely tightened. Anything I do exacerbates the issue, physio has been non existent, besides a few stretches given.
    My spine is painful to press on and I struggle doing most things at the moment. Bending, lifting and even sleeping is a nightmare. I generally sleep on my back but if I attempt to sleep on my side the pain is centralised to lumber.
    Due to not being able to do much I've seen significant deterioration in my muscles which is adding to the issues.
    Bizarrely crossing my legs or ankles really increases the lumber pain.
    The only time I felt on the way to recovery was after a trip where I spent literally every single day swimming.
    I know this is long winded but I'm at my wit's end and have had literally zero help from doctors. My GP stated that they can see why I'm in so much pain from my MRIs but they wouldn't offer surgery due to the discs no longer being herniated.

    What do you think of the lower back stretch where you stretch your legs out and your arms out and force your lower back to the floor whilst stretching as far as you can with your arms and legs? It seems to be a really deep stretch for the lower back, but I'm just wondering if there's any dangers to it.
    Cheers.

    • @Criticalbench
      @Criticalbench  3 года назад

      Well, we do like that stretch however, this will be different from person to person depending on the health of their spine and lower back, as well as how strong their core and posterior chan are. There will be those who feel pain or discomfort doing this stretch and if that's the case they should avoid it.

    "Go get it checked out"? Bro, the docs mainly refer you to PT if you've got pinched nerves/herniated discs. What do physical therapists do? They have you do pretty much these exact exercises. Don't see a chiropractor though, those are not real doctors.

      @@Criticalbench Oh I'm not saying they're bad at their job, I'm saying their job is based on old-timey pseudoscience and was started as actual cult. That's like being a very skilled voodoo shaman. To be fair, lower back pain is the one area they're accidentally decent at helping. But the risks and scams outweigh the good if you're going to them for anything else. I mean, who in their right mind thinks violently wrenching someone's neck around is perfectly safe?
