Hi there, i have had a deep muscular pain in the lower left side of my back for the best part of 10 years (i am 25) i got this injury from playing Gaelic football (aussie rules) the muscle pain is deep in the left side of my back in the kidney area. when i first got this injury i had the pain in my back and also a sharp shooting pain in running down my buttock at in my hamstring. i recieved chiropractic treatment for nearly two years, this treatment cured the sharp pain runing down my leg, but ive still got this dead pain deep in my back. In the time over the years ive had acupunture treatment i also had a Wikipedia reference-linkMRI scan which found nothing. i gave up all sports for years because if i was to train for two weeks soilid the pain would become unbearable. recently i started really exercising again and the pain again became to much, i went to a back specialist who treated me, he tried to break down the muscle on the left side but cudnt. i have also invested in orthapedic insoles for my shoes, i have had them now for over 4 months, there has been no change in my back pain. i really dont know what to do any more. i would really appreciate some advice from any experts out there. what i am thinking of doing next is to look into supplements to help try an heal this damaged muscle i have had for years an do core exercise to strengthen my back. should i do this?? Advice from anybody would be greatly appreciated
