Lower back pain from cheerleading?
As someone who is currently recovering from low back surgery, please tell your mom to let you see a doctor. An orthopedic or neurosurgeon is best. They would probably order x-rays and an MRI to specify exactly where and what the injury actually is. Since the external treatment has made no difference, they may decide to give you a spinal epidural which would give relief within a day or so. Do not neglect having this taken care of or it will become almost crippling in the future. I put mine off for many years, and my surgery was much worse than if I had done it sooner. I might also recommend that you try to figure out a way to do your stunts without re-injuring yourself. How you position yourself will be of great importance to avoid further damage in the future.
I hurt my back while basing in cheerleading. What might it be and what can i do to make it better?
okay so we have cheerleading camp and today was the first day. I usually fly but i switched to basing because we have too many fliers. I am still getting the hang of basing but am not bad at it and the stunt usually goes up efficiantly. However, one time we were doing a straight up extension and i didn't really have good grip of the fliers foot so i thought it wasn't going to go up but we ended up still going and i snaked my back to get her up. If you dont know what that is its like leaning back then in with your back kinda like doing the worm and basing at the same time. After i did this i got a sharp pain in one of the vertebraes in my lower back. After it just kinda hurts like a dull pain all day. What is the best way of taking care of this? What do you think happened to it? Strain or Sprain? Btw i have no numbness or tingling and i could feel everything. and i went to the bathroom fine and yeah. i also have a sore throat and stuffy nose after this happened but it wasn't immediate and i think i was getting sicky anyways so it doesn't really relate. Thanks so much! i really hope you could help and especially a cheerleader would be wonderful!

Lower back pain during a toe touch or russian? (cheer)?
When I was doing toe touches by lower back was hurting. It wasnt hurting afterwards, just in the air. I dont have good jumps, and I know I dont sit enough. Could that be what is causing the pain?
What can I do to treat my lower back pain due to a jerk in the gym on the squat rack? I want to start gymming again.
Its unfortunate what happened with you and I wish you a speedy recovery.Now lets understand squats as an exercise. Squat is a compound movement which targets your quads muscle. This is number 1 exercise for quads in which lower back, knees, hips and of course your thighs are involved. Whenever while doing this exercise your center of mass will get disoriented from your core then one of the body parts involved will get injured. Like in your case your lower back.Good news is that there is no injury as such but because of the jerk there must be muscular spasms. I won’t go into how and why this happened. Let us see what needs to be done now.Avoid doing squats completely for the time being. Squats are for your quads but it take a lot out of your lower back so for next 1 month avoid doing themYou need to strengthen your lower back for which doc has already suggested you few exercises. Below shown ones will really help you with the same.From now on give lot of importance to warm up and specially back and lower back warm ups.Apply ice pack on the affected area twice or thrice daily for 15 minutes each. This will really help you a lot.As you pain weans off and lower back starts feeling normal then you can again start with free squats and gradually weighted squats.Wish you a strong back and a healthier life ahead.Cheers!!
My arm hurts doing back handsprings?
I got my back handspring a couple of weeks ago and I'm working to perfect it. Ever since I got it the middle part of my arm has been killing me. I've always figured it was just my muscles, but both of my arms hurt now, in the same part. I know I'm not landing on my arms wrong, and when I tape my wrists they still hurt the same. Yesterday I did my back handspring and nothing sounded or looked wrong but my arms hurt very bad. I waited five minutes to relax, but five minutes later, the same spot on both arms got bright red and still hurt. I was told to go down to the trainer, but he wasn't there. I don't know what to do, please don't tell me to quit cheer, because I'm not going to. Please tell me a way to help or even prevent this. I've already tried tape and stretching a ton. Please, please, please help. Thanks!
My back hurts when I do dragon flags. Should I continue doing them?
If you are sure that you're getting this solely from performing dragon flags then you may not be getting enough support from your abdominals that is why your back is getting the unnecessary load from the exercise. I suggest you try this progression first before you go full blast with your dragon flags. Cheers!Enter the Dragon Flag: 4 Simple Progressions for Success
I have had lower-back pain for 8 months now, what should I do?
It's unlikely to be a normal sprain if it has lasted this long.You should get you back checked out very soon, the sooner you find out what kind of damage has been done, the better. Some injuries become more difficult to fix if a long enough time has been left before you do anything about it.Until you do see a doctor, take warm baths, put a hot water bottle under your back while you sit down. Try moving and stretching very lightly to try and make it easier to move normally. Take some ibuprofen if it gets bad enough.But above all, get it checked out soon. It could be a trapped nerve, it could be that your spine is out of alignment, it could even just be a very bad sprain or a torn muscle. But you will not know until you see a doctor.Hope this helps and that it gets better
