For nearly 6 months I've suffered from a problem with my lower back, just above my pelvis on the left side of my spine. Whenever I bend my spine backwards, I get a sharp concentrated shooting pain on my spine which makes my lower back muscles seize up and leaves me unable to move my back into certain positions until the muscles relax. The pain generally occurs more often when my bowels are gassy, as I suffer from flatulence. At the gym I do deadlifts as well which may have caused this in the first place? Since the pains started I have refrained from deadlifting until I find a remedy. Any advice or possible diagnosis would be much appreciated. Thanks.
