I've had a lot of back pain since a bad slip and fall at my gym a year ago. One of the best things I did was to invest in a Vulcan Back Support. I wear it while playing squash which otherwise I would certainly not be able to play, and also if doing any major lifting. I am actually wearing it now after a reaction from a game last night, and it takes away all of the pain. No need for drugs!!
Take it from me, resting too much is bad for the back, but over-exertion is also bad without using a support. I find that if I use the paddle machines in the gym it improves my back no end, and I use them for an hour, three or four times a week without a support.Comment
