Hello all

When I sleep on my front for more than a few minutes and then get up or roll over, my lower back muscles either side of the spine both throb and theres a dull ache that is only relieved when im stood up.. The muscles in question are about 2-3 inches above my waistline but about 1/2 inches away from the spine.

It takes an age to stand up straight as the longer I have lay on my front then the stiffer the back is? If I wake up after being on my front for a long time such as more than 30 mins,,,, OMG it feels like my lower back has seized and locked in position..

Its also exactly the same aches and problems in the same muscles when I do front stroke swimming. When I do one length of the pool and get to the end of the pool my back is just locked into the position of what can only be described as hyperlordodis or sway back....

Any advice on whats happened and which back muscles are the problem?
Thanks
