My Cousin is a Long Distance Runner and Went to the Doctor For Sudden Back Pain
My cousin is a long distance runner, and competes in many marathons throughout the year. This is something he has enjoyed doing for the past eleven years, and the key to what has kept him in such good physical shape. However, one afternoon when he was practicing with his trainer, he suddenly had a sharp pain down the middle of his back. His trainer said it was probably sciatica, but insisted he be checked out just to be safe. The doctor confirmed what the trainer already said, and gave my cousin a series a back strengthening exercises. Within two weeks he was like his old self again.
