My lower back is junk
20 years of falling out of airplanes and just about anything else that flies, drives or floats wore mine out at an early stage. I think maybe the "best" thing that happened for me was when it all just "blew out" and I had to have surgery. Chiro is amazing if you find the right one. Inversion table and easing into core strength to help stabilize things. A lot of my low back issues are related to pelvis and hips and pain transfer
