I wish fishing was my job but unfortunately I am a physical therapist mon-fri. Please please please go see a PT. You can see a PT for 45 days without a referral from an MD in California. If you will be seeing one longer you will need to get a referral from your MD. Going to see your MD is going to do nothing for you. He/She can give you pain meds that might mask the symptoms for a little while but it does not fix your problem. This is so very common and a combination of stretching, strengthening, positioning and activity modification can do lot. Please don't even mention the word surgery. You do not want anyone going near your back with a knife. The success rate is not as good as you would hope. I would strongly encourage you to not listen to random people on a message and go speak with an outpatient PT. PM me if you have any specific questions.
