Hey Guys,

Hoping to get some opinions from some of the more fitness-savvy people here. I went swimming yesterday and I haven't swam in years and didn't stretch before or after and must have over done it, because my back is killing me today. I haven't thrown it out or anything, it definately just feels like a muscle running along the left side of my spine. Anyways, it really hurts so I don't know what to do about exercising. The thought of having to take a few days off makes me sick and makes me think about not eating. I thought maybe I should avoid the weights but could still go for long walks...just maybe not run at all. What do you guys think? The last thing I want to do is make it worse and be out of commission even longer

Thanks!
Kelly
