[QUOTE="Monkey Butt, post: 663483, member: 18696"] L4 -L5 here also. Going on 14 years now. I took along time off of riding (10 years) partially because of my back but there was other issues also. When I started riding again my back was still painful and always will be. Riding actually helped my back to get stronger and be less painful most of the time. However, I have had a couple of boughts of crawling around the house for a couple of weeks from over doing riding. I stay away from jumping and stand up when I ride as much as I can so my legs absorb the shock. Invest in a good kidney belt!!! I like the Kevco Stubbs version. Mine is a MSR but it is made by Kevco. Also continue stretching even after your pain starts to subside. Last year I almost gave up riding again because of reinjuring my back while riding. Since then I started stretching on a regular basis and lost 15 pounds. I still have back aches every day and usually a little in my left leg, but I feel better now then I have for a couple of years. I even managed to complete about a five hour enduro last Sunday. It will take my back a few days to loosen up, but I plan on riding next weekend again. Be PATIENT, exercise when your able, stretch a couple of times each day and eventually you will be riding again if you so desire. Good Luck and make sure your doctor knows his stuff. [/QUOTE]
