We have a swimmer that has been complaining about back pain after a L5-S1 microdiskectomy. She only has pain while kicking flutter/free and not *** stroke. Any thoughts about alleviating the pain, exercises or other conditioning to help?
Thanks,

If she is using a float while kicking that may put pressure on the lower spine.
Gentle stretching particularly hamstrings, hip rotation and core strength exercises (pilates/yoga) may help.
