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:
I have the occasional back pain, mostly my sacroiliac. One thing I've changed is that during my warmup I rarely do flip turns, using open turns to make sure my lower back
is loosened up properly. Also, I've worked the past couple of months to improve my flip turns, getting my knees bent more so there's not as much strain on my back.
