Herniated a disc in my back yesterday in an unfortunate soccer collision and wow, I have never felt anything this horrible in my life. Taking any and all recs from people who have recovered from back injuries. 💛

i've torn my shoulder & had glute med bursitis. both times i was recommended to get some sort of surgery. i thanked them for their advice and spent months fixing both myself. my motto is if it's not fully torn or broken then you can fix it without surgery. become an expert in whatever your issue is. watch yt videos, use ai to summarize medical papers (ask ai to explain it to a 10 yr old ) diet. cut out any inflammation foods (google will give you those) lift weights (when possible) biggest mistake ppl make is to stay away from gym. again google/ yt exercises/ rehab for herniated disc both my shoulder and glue med are perfect now. btw i'm 41 so i don't have youth on my side. it always feels like you have to climb a mountain with crutches but trust me it gets easier. oh and plenty of ice/ heat therapy too. 💪
