so i went to throw a switch 5 today and just as i left the lip and started to spin i felt a sharp horrendous pain in my back just above my right hip. i failed my landing miserably because of the pain. anyway, managed to ski to my locker, took some painkillers and was just about to go back on the lift and the pain shot dow my back again. went to the meds and they said go to a hospital asap, sounds like you may have fractured your spine. now i knew this was highly unlikely but went to hospital anyway. after 2 x-rays and a lot of prodding about they concluded that i have actually ripped my "latissimus dorsi" muscle in my back and i'll be out for 6-8 weeks!!!!

i'm right to be pissed aren't i?

any suggestions to make it better quicker would be really greatly appreciated xD if not, things to kill 6-8 weeks as fast as poss would be good too...

my suggestion to make it better would be to listen to what the doctor told you to do. i have gone to school long enough to trust someone who has gone to school longer than i have.

sound, sound advice. this dude is a very wise man. but not answering the question. i would say start smoking weed. if you already do so, i would say take up knitting and fingerpainting.

probably your best option. the same exact thing happened to my friend, so he got a sex change and now everything is good again.

"Latissimus Dorsi" aka your back = very important

Don't fuck with that shit, just get some rest and do what the doctor says.

lame as it may be, take it easy and follow doc orders.

Don't be like me, in the spring I messed up my neck / broke my wrist racing motocross, I hit the slopes (still in cast) and started riding as soon as I got the cast off... bad call.

My neck is shot and I've been in physical therapy for 5 months dealing with it...But sking in april in a tee shirt was well worth it haha.

In all seriosness though take it easy.. you don't want to be in the situation i'm in.

definitely listen to the doctor and sit out for a bit. try taking up crocheting or guitar or something. basically anything non-physical that will occupy you.

man i had the same shit from casing a jump, listen to my advice, after 5 months my back still hurt on and off until i started stretching it and doing back strengthining exercises, also make sure to ice your back this week to keep the swelling and inflimation down, but get on those stretches when its safe to do so, just google exercises for it
