Lower back pain for over a month now, not getting better on its own. Like a knife in my lumbar region. Walking around hunched over at times like a cliche old man! Not sure how this happened but the sedentary stay at home lifestyle, and sitting for a living at work, probably the reasons. Looks like i need to get physical therapy in the middle of this pandemic.

Yeah i had an MRI scan done and they found a bulged disc. The stabbing pain which makes it feel very fragile is from the disc pushing on a nerve. Move in the wrong direction and feels like someone is inserting the knife. The injection i had helped bring down the swelling and this allows the disc to re-seat because the inflammation goes down. Problem is whether you have medical insurance because i hear they can cost a bit. Mine was covered by workcover. Sad thng is with the pain still there however not extreme the GP says it's a forever weakened area and is more likely to happen again. Im still waiting for the virus stuff to die down before they continue further with PT. Good luck, i know how uncomfortable and agonizing it can be mate
