Back Injury!

I never knew how dangerous brushing your teeth could be just before going to bed.

After brushing my teeth, I turned away from the basin. My top half turned whilst my bottom half, for some unknown reason did not. I then felt a sharp pain in my lower back.

Two asprin and some heat spray may have helped a little but I felt discomfort even moving slightly in bed.

This morning my back was still painful. I took two more asprin and went to work.

At just gone twelve, I took two Ibuprofen and later went poolside, stepping into the Jucuzzi and placing the jets on my lower back. Feels a bit better now, but can just about walk about let alone run anywhere. This is a shame, as today was going to be one of my planned two running days.

I certainly hope my back is better very soon!

Mike,
I hope your back gets better quickly. You have your referee test at the weekend and you dont want to miss it. Good luck.
You got your own pool and jacuzzi?

I used the poolside Jacuzzi at my gym at the Park Royal Hotel's Reflections Spa and Leisure:

I wish I had my own Jacuzzi! ;-)
