question: 100% positive I threw my back out by sneezing and coughing at the same time resulting in a painful spasm this morning. Walking, sitting, standing, laying down... nothing feels comfortable. I am going to see my Doctor in the am, but I am pretty sure I will just be told to rest, ice, compress. Last time this happened, over a year ago, my Dr. wrote an Rx for a steroid because my movement was so impaired. At this point, is it worth it to see my Doc or should i hold off and see how things go?
