Pedee, Oregon | Yep, a few years from 40 and my back can give me fits. I have to run through my stretching exercises every day or it starts stiffening up. You've got to take a few minutes a day and stretch. If you're stuck in equipment all day it really helps to do some in the morn and in the evening. Heck there are some you can do in the cab during the day. Don't be to proud to not take care of yourself. Take some Aleve in the morning to help keep the inflammation down. Your chiropractor probably gives you the stretching lecture every time you gimp in there, right? If you have already developed some mechanical problems, get yourself to the doctor and get it fixed before you get some degenerative nerve or disk damage. You can tough it out right to the point of really screwing yourself up. That's part of what I did, and it sounds like you are on that road too. Don't mean to lecture, but it's a real serious deal. Take care of yourself. | |
