A member asked:
I hurt my lower back doing stiff leg deadlifts. there is a bit of swelling in my lower back. it's been 5 days and it still hurts.

Back pain : I have seen thousands of people with spinal pain. I can't tell you how important an in-person examination is needed to help you. Deadlifts can cause significant damage to the back, so fractures or damaged discs can occur.
