    This is right up my alley. I have been battling low back and SI since Oct of last year. started out with sciatica. Went to chiro and made adjustments but never would got better much. Went to my normal doc who thought it was more SI than a lumbar problem. Tenderness over the glute and SI joint but no tenderness around the lumbar spine. Sent me for PT. Got a little better but the pain never went away. PT had me doing press ups and some stretching but again never really went away.

    My pain is sharp in my glute and sometimes goes around to my lateral hip ( right where my belt will sit.) Sometimes it will shoot down my quad and hamstrings. sometimes flank pain as well. Now I notice that it is radiating into my lower left abdominal area. I really think it is tight muscles but as much as I use the supernova, lacross ball and other mwod tools it eases but comes back. Training acutally makes it better.

    Once I get warm I’m good. still feel a little pull but no where near as bad as later in the day and when I wake up. Same when I getg up from a chair. first few mins suck but once I get to going its not as bad.

    awesome thanks. Im currently battling an injured low back. Not sure if it is a disk or a muscle problem. Horrible sciatica pain and pain that moves to the lateral hip on the l side. Pretty much rt on the trochanter.

    Not yet. He has mentioned that in the last week or so. Only problem is that I have not met my deductible and its fixing to start over. If it is not better by the first of he year the that’s the path we are going to take. We did talk and we both think it is muscle. He said that normally if it is a disk problem I should be having pain when I sit. I don’t have pain though when sitting. I believe I may have been going after my QL’s in the wrong location though. I think I may have been a little to lateral of the spine so I’m going to work a little more medial to the spine. Mobility work does seem to help so I’m hoping that it is just muscle.
