So what professional
suggestion do you have for a four day sore lower back caused by yanking out a
large clump of Tansy Ragwort from the pasture?
Actually I would be
interested in "eavesdropping" on this subject, such as what is the
best way to strengthen the lower back? I'm 51 and not getting any younger.
Truly youth IS wasted on the young...

Hi Lyn--
I'm sorry for what you are
going through with your back pain, and you have brought up some very
interesting points about the nature of your pain, treatment and common notions
about back pain and riding. I thought I would respond in an attempt to be of
some help, remembering that advice is worth what you pay for it. With your
permission, maybe we can conduct a dialog about your problem here on RC and other
Ridecampers can benefit by "eavesdropping" or ask questions
themselves, and perhaps more than one person can be helped. We know that back
and spine pain is an issue for many riders, and this may be an effective way to
clear some things up for some people. If you're not comfortable with that, feel
free to email me privately, and I will do what I can to help. What do you say?
