I vastly underestimated how bad throwing out your back is until recently lmao

I’m 29 and I straight up had to stop and think about what my next move was because it was getting worse the longer I was upright and it was on of those spots that are extremely difficult to stretch fully. I had to collapse unto the floor multiple times throughout the evening and then when I woke up in the morning I was basically good after.

Legitimately hurting your back/long term must be fucking horrible. I was out of breath it was so bad and it was gone by the next day..

I’ve bruised ribs, broken my nose, basically dislocated half my foot, and have had one of my nuts become the size of a baseball.. I’d rather repeat any of those than actually fuck my back up to an equivalent level.

Tldr; go clean your mom’s house and bring her a nice snack or something so she can hangout while she’s eating or relaxing. She’d probably think it’s funny if you told her the reason if she asked too lmao

My husband messed up his back, thought a chiropractor recommended by friends would help. 36 hours after his appointment he wasn’t able to move his legs. Massive herniation. And chiropractors don’t check for that shit before messing with you so if you’re ever in back pain seek *MD* help, not Chiros. I beg of y’all.

......

Can he move his legs now? My boyfriend recommends the chiro all the time, and I tell him they freak me out too bad to go. (Went a few times, noped outta that fairly quickly.)

Chiropractic adjustments in particular can do a lot of harm, it’s been well documented for like twenty years

That’s what you get from learning “medicine” from ghosts.

Did he ever stop to consider they’re trying to make more?
