Hi Everyone, My name is Sarah and I just recently came back to swimming (about 3 weeks ago) after a couple years break. (I am 27). After the first week of swimming in the local Masters program, I started to develop lower back pain. The pain got so bad that I can no longer swim...I saw my doctor and they told me that it is a muscle strain... Has anyone else delt with lower back pain? How long was it before you started to feel better?:confused:

    Thanks for your reply. I think my major problem is that I thought that I could just start swimming workouts with no problem...like I did when I was 18. :) The research that I did suggested that most minor back injuries (about 90%) heal within 6 weeks. I am just hoping that my pain is minor, and not major.
