Hey Jaynick, yes the extensions can be difficult because your disc is essentially blocking your motion but as it reabsorbs centrally, you should improve. As for that tenderness, that is normal and is actually a good sign from a prognosis standpoint (if you were having sciatic pain at least).
The tenderness will persist for a little but as your ROM increases it should dissipate. If the therapist is doing mobilizations to your lower lumbar, this should also decrease the pain. Good luck.[/quote]
Yeah, the Therapist I’m seeing is good, he’s been working with me and showing me some new stuff too. It gets frustrating because it’s not even that severe of an injury but it’s enough for me to stop doing Deadlifts and Squats.
