Cripes, all ya old farts are making my hurt back hurt worse and I'm 40 and had no pain until my accident. Did PT went away, well at least long enough to notice it gone. Since the new accident the pain's back.
How damned old are you all anyhow? Was I just lucky until I was 37 to never have had prior issues? I don't wanna look forward to surgery some day. Short version, IMHO this last round of PT has also had serious core exercises as well as stretching intervals and constant chiropractic adjustments until two weeks ago. Come to think of it I've noticed more tingles and a sort of throbbing @ the inside of my lower leg and foot recently since the adjustments stopped.
Heck it was what, 2-3 Va-Jay-Jay meets back when I just had to leave b/c I was in so much pain. You guys have had to live with this stuff to the point of Surgery, I should be counting my blessings.

*Had to look before answering w/ suggestions.
Naproxen, Soma or Cyclobenzaprine. Used in combination as a NSAID and relaxant when going to bed. Helps keep things limber.
Ditto the Yoga, been trying it lately and it's helped immensely. Besides, like all guys say bro,
Yoga Pants.
Worth the trip alone.

Worth the trip alone.Yeah I guess I should check out the local one... wait no somewhere else, maybe I'll meet some babes.
BTW I do have flat feet, what inserts are recommended and what have you tried? I saw SuperFeet by wombat.

Honestly bro I'd have to check on that whole insert bit b/c it was our Daughter who got them IIRC it was the Florsheim rep and they were free to us b/c she's @ the point where she's just too in between sizes and growth spurts. As for me I am using the Gels as well as SWIFTWICK socks since I like the support they give while I'm on my feet 90% of the day. Check them out if you get the chance, same spot i would get the Thule stuff from has them, Sportsbasement South of Market or Bryant Street S.F.

Hmmm yeah my buddy gets 15% i think off at the presidio one I used to till I quit my last job so.
I'm 54 and been doing yoga & Pilates for ~30 years
- no back problems and very physically fit
Yoga is vertical - a lot of standing and balancing
Pilates is horizontal - on the mat on the floor doing core strengthening
The biggest thing IMO is what you do & don't eat
For me, no pig, no cow, no lamb, no hfcs, no alcohol, no smoke

I can't help with the inserts, as it depends on your standing foot position, walking foot position, and running foot position.
I know someone who has a different insert for different purposes. I realize that some might think that's crap, but I had this confirmed by a podiatrist.

Hmm I guess I should look into some.
Did the same amount of walking in my timberlands and had zero issues.
