Okay Ridecampers,
	We're a group of tough riders that have years or riding under our 
collective belts and the injuries that go along with it.  So, I thought 
this is a great place to ask advice.  After a recent (about 5 weeks 
ago) parting of the ways with my mare, I have lower back pain.  It was 
the kind of spill that was very jarring and I hurt all over for the 
next  few days (kind of like a car accident).  Aside from fracturing my 
thumb, nothing major was hurting, but gradually my lower back has been 
aching.  I wake up in the morning and have that UUGGHH kind of pain.  I 
can take 4 Advils and it doesn't do much.  I can still function pretty 
much but don't enjoy constant pain.  I've got a ride coming up and want 
to be able to do it.  Does anyone have any remedies for lower back 
pain?  I'm on my feet most of the day, and that's probably better than 
sitting but I'm hoping for some relief soon.  I'm open to anything, 
OTC, homeopathic, etc.
