Hope you get well soon Justin.
Don't rest up, worse thing you can do for a bad back, trust me, I know!
You must take gentle exercise...............here's a few examples
S l o w l y push the hoover round, or if in Spain, the floor duster
Keep back straight whilst washing up
Don't overstretch putting the crockery away
Bend properly loading the washing machine
Kneel while bathing the children
Don't slouch over the ironing board
I could go on, but you get the drift now don't you?!!!!!
Thanks for EOS, where would we be without it?
Doing the hoovering, washing, etc., see above!
