I should not need to explain this one.

Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.

If my knees are anything to go by I’ll simply have no spine by my mid 20s
I have arthritis and I saw an ad for the med I take for it and everyone was like 60 or 70 💀
Oh damn, arthritis meds by your (guessing) early 20s is rough. Sorry to hear that.
Yeah but medication I’m on really helped :D
Um, super weird question, but would you DM me what that medication is? I'm dealing with some aggressive degeneration and trying to get out in front of it as much as possible, so entertaining all possible options.
I’ll just throw it out but it’s xelganz
Idk if I got the spelling right but please talk to your doctor about it, I am not a doctor
I shall! Thank you!
Just wanna add emphasis on the I’m not a doctor part, I don’t know how well “it worked for an internet stranger” will hold up with your doctor
🤣 I'll be sure to use that exact line on her. I'm sure she'll love it.
The best thing I ever did for my back was take up weightlifting (Specifically deadlifts) I've got degenerative disease plus a herniated disc plus spinal arthritis and was living with chronic pain, and now I feel like I'm 20 again. I would encourage anybody with back pain to add deadlifts to their life if possible. Anybody needs any help getting started can drop me a line
Man, that sounds exactly like me, only trying to get back to lifting (I used to, long before the back issues) was brutal pain. Just couldn't hack it.
I would heart this if I could. I just started lifting about 2 months ago.
That's awesome! Honestly I think its the best possible thing you can do for yourself. As your strength level comes up you start getting more useful and harder to injure
