A member asked:
Left side of one vertebrae in lower back always feels bruised to touch. x-ray shows some degeneration, but i'm 24 and very active/fit. how to fix?

Good question.: I would suggest that you consult with an Osteopathic Physician (D.O,) and a physical therapist who specializes in sports medicine. You are too young to let this get worse and have more problems later on.
