I'm Fucking Crippled!

Spent the last few days furnishing a house on my own. Lifting loads of heavy weights, plumbing in white-goods and assembling shitloads of flat-pack furniture.

Job almost done, building the last bed and I bend over to lift up a plank and riiiiiippppp.... Something goes in my lower back. I can stand OK but trying to bend is absolute agony.

So why is this? Why, after all the heavy lifting, the contortions I went through to get bolt A into Slot B, the holding weights while I got something to fit - why didn't something go ping then? Why wait until the very end and then break lifting a poxy plank?

There is no justice.

Cheers

In fairness
it's justice that you've finished all the hard-work. If you started off and ripped something that would be injustice. Thank the lord for he is our saviour.

I hate random injuries like that
I tore a muscle in my knee getting into bed a couple of months ago!

Back Injuries

I've put my back out about 4 times in my life. The worst time - off work for 2 months, in pain for another 6, was getting out of Toyota Celica. I coughed while I was halfway out and tore something. I walked like Quasimodo for the next few months.

I did my back in a few years ago
while sawing up wood, standing up out of a chair was a nightmare, and ended up moving in such an awkward way as to not hurt my back when I got up I pulled a hamstring instead

Argh

I'm in pain everyday with my hips
and pop painkillers like sweets. I don't even know what caused it, the doctors don't know what caused it. So I understand your frustration.

I have arthritis in my back (and feet)
Luckily controlled fairly well by meds now (though the liver destroying potential means I cant drink too much*), but before finding something that worked (and could be taken with warfarin) everything was painful.


I'm 20

Now *that*'s injustice



*In theory, I'm still a student after all, so this becomes "cant drink too much in the week before a blood test", though still well short of my previous limit
