Powerlifter with back injury

Hi everybody.

I am a powerlifter and I have some back pain. Suprise suprise lol

This diagram shows where my back pain is. It hurts when I am sat down, try to stand up, squat, bend down or attempt to pick anything up off the floor. It's not mega pain its just sore.

The black circle shows where the pain is.


The pain had been there for a few weeks. I first got it doing a max deadlift about 6 weeks ago where I had to really FIGHT the bar off the floor and twisted ever so very slightly. The straw that broke my back was doing a deadlift in the British Champs 2 weeks ago today. The lift looked very similar to the one below but I only got it to the knees before I had to drop.



Can anybody tell me what I have done and how I can fix it?
Before anybody says it, I know the lift was a complete technical balls up.

Thank you for any help you can offer.

John

Hi all. I have a doctors appointment on Thursday to get my Private Health care form filled in so I can make my claim. The cover I have qualifies me for 10 visits to a Physio.

Does anybody think they could help me?

Thanks

John
