I had back surgery and have had pain since the injury.
I'm starting to exercise again. Its slow going but I'm doing it. My goal is 5 times a week. When I started I could only do 7 mins. I'm up to 12 now. I'm doing a walking video until it hurts then I stop but I have improved a little. I have permanent numbness in my left calf and bottom of my left foot, so I put most my weight on my right side. Pain is in the back and right leg. I'm hoping to keep at it though. |

Try water walking or water aerobics. Both help get you better without the pull of gravity. Works for me. Check out your local YMCA.

I second the water exercise suggestion, but in a specialized pool - not in the apartment complex' pool. We have a neighborhood pool that even offers physical therapy for recovery from injury, in the water. And, the pool's temperature is 27C!
