Chronic lumbar strain?!


Question:

Chronic lumbar strain?

I strained my lumbar muscle on the lower left side of my back about 2 years ago and it comes and goes, about every 6 months it will hurt for a couple weeks, but then go away. Right now though it has been hurting for about 4 weeks and it's still not gone yet! What should I do about this BESIDES go to the doctor, obviously my doctor knows about it I just want to hear other peoples experiance with this.

Thanx

mine is not with the spine itself, I don't think, it's one of the muscles, off to one side(left)

I have a problem with my L5. I saw a chiropractor, but really saw relief when i bought an inversion table. Mine was inexpensive (150). 15 minutes 3-4 times a week really decompresses the joints and helps relieve the pain
