It's ok Traveller. There are some things tp avoid during these days like heavy lifting, "dead lifts" (bending over and lifting a weight - ALWAYS bend with your knees!), sudden twisting movements. If you're taking regular voltaren for back pain/injuries, you may find that AF is particularly heavy and clotty. All you can do is ride it out. Long term, I found that clinical pilates helped me out - it trained my muscles to keep my discs in place. I hope your back settles soon!
