Lower back pain
I had this lower back injury in sep 2019 while doing bent over rows then consulted a doctor he gave me some medicines and some physiotherapy sessions then I was fine but always had the problem bending forward( even when I was brushing my teeths) so I got a MRI scan done recently for LS spine the report results were saying that I have buldging disc at L4 -L5
INDENTING THE THECALSAC mild narrowing of bilateral
Neural foramina and latral recess, no neural compression
So the physiotherapist I contacted gave me some excercises to do but then again while lifting something I got choked and short of breath and since then doing the excercises my lower back is feeling like compressed by something and my posture is leaning backward (as I feels) . So pls suggest me what to do
As now iam not even able to bend a little bit and feeling very fragile (lower back)
