Copied from another sub-thread. So the full backstory is that I injured my back when I was 20, playing tennis barefoot of all things. My doctor just gave me muscle relaxers and told me to stretch more, which I of course did not do. Since then, I have re-injured my lower back three or four times, doing deadlifts and squats (incorrectly, I guess, not through lack of trying though.) Since my last injury, I have lowered weight, focused on form even more, and started doing Yoga for better core strength and flexibility. It is slowly helping and I haven't re-injured myself for over a year. I think I have just severely damaged my spine and I should probably go see a good doctor, chiropractor, or licensed massage therapist like some other comments have suggested.
