In the past few days (4 or so) I've been experiencing pain in my lower back. It is a stinging type of pain, that pangs whenever I arch my back past a certain point.
It starts right in the lowest part of my back, and I can kind of feel it go down my butt/top part of the back of my leg a little. Its not horrible but I don't feel comfortable at all running.
What is causing this? Is this just a pulled muscle from picking something up or twisting the wrong way? Or could it be from all the slipping around that has been a part of my running the last few weeks due to ice and snow?
Any help would be much appreciated. Thank you.
