Hello,
I have had lower back pain for 4 years now. I have been seen for it several times through out the last 4 years, but more recently have been going much more. They took x-rays and and MRI. Both don't show anything objectionable, however I have a lot of pain in my lower back. I am currently in Physical Therapy and have been getting temporary profiles since Feb, 2010. The stretches that the physical therapist is having me do is not helping at. I feel worse after doing them. I am not able to wear my flak vest for very long without my back becoming very painful. What will happen? What can I do? I am not able to do my job and my MRI doesn't show anything objectionable, but my lower back hurts a lot when I have to do things like stand for more that a 10 min, wear all the gear, walk, etc. Any help would be nice. Thank you.
