Back Pain

Does anyone else suffer with back problems? I'm going through an extremely tough time right now. In September I over-rotated throwing a roundhouse kick (yes, I'm a martial artist), and sustained a lumbar sprain. I went straight to a chiro, and he also took x-rays. I have a lumbar spine that would rival a car wreck victim. The vertebrae are rotated and the natural curve has not only leveled itself out, but is starting to curve in the opposite direction. Bear in mind I'm 20 years old. I've been seeing a chiropractor for 2 and a half months now, 3x a week. I had reached the point of pain-free again (a great accomplishment considering the pain I had before), and then I went home for Thanksgiving, slept on my mattress at home and now I'm back where I started, only now with more pain in my hips and thighs. This wasn't meant to be a sob story, only this is really starting to suck. I wanted to swim this morning and I couldn't. I haven't consistently trained in martial arts for a year because of knee problems (which is a whole other story), and now it looks like two years because of my back. Will this ever stop? I'm feeling a little despondent right now. Forgive me for the pity party and sob story. I just want to be pain free and swimming and kicking people again.
