A member asked:

Back hurts when i'm laying down belly up? its the lumbar region and i haven't bruised or injured it. i crack my back a lot, could this be the problem?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Probably degenerativ: Don't believe that "cracking ' your back is the problem. Stretching exercises may actually be helpful for flexibility. You may actually have degenerative disc disease of lower back.
