    Parents Back pain

    My 10 year old dd Level 5 has been experiencing back pain in her lower spine when arching her back for several weeks. X-rays and MRI show no injury. We have rested her, used over the counter pain meds, ice, heat and are starting PT. Being that it appears the pain is upon bending in the spine...

    WAG How to do backwards skills without back pain?

    So when I do backbends/backwalkovers it’s not exactly pain, but it’s more uncomfortable than I remember it being. When I was younger, like 9 or 10 it was WAY easier to do back walkovers and now I get scared my back will snap even though I am decently flexible, and I can walk my hands up to my...

    Anon Untreated back pain

    My daughter has a teammate who has been complaining about back pain for at least a year. Sometimes it's bad enough that she misses practice, and she's said it sometimes hurts so much that it hurts her to breathe. She's also started complaining of hip pain. Her parents will not take her to the...

    Parents Back Pain

    So my DD has had very bad lower back pain the last few months. We aren't really sure how she hurt it but it is not going away and its been months.

    WAG Lower back pain

    About a week ago, my DD did many (12? 16? She did them in sets of 4) back walkovers on beam, which she never does because she has a block on that skill and her coach told her it’s fine, she won’t be competing it at any point anyway. She was trying to conquer this fear, our coach spotted her on...

    WAG Scoliosis and back pain

    My DD, 14 year old L 9 has been having some mid/low back pain on one side. I took her to get X-rays todays to rule out fracture. Turns out she has scoliosis. The Physician Assistant we saw said that this asymmetry is causing her back pain. Not even sure what my question is. I guess, does...

    I am currently experiencing lower back pain and don't know how to resolve it. I have tried resting but it gets super tight which makes it more sore as i have quite a flexible back, but when i use it my back hurts afterward quite badly. Has anyone got any tips on how to make it better?

    Parents Back pain... How long to wait?

    My DD is a 10 year old level 5 and started having back pain in her lower back on 8/24. It hurts only on the right side. She thinks she hurt it initially on an awkward warm up vault. She competed the meet. She rested her back for several days and acted like it felt better. Practiced as usual...

    Coaches Back pain and prevention

    What kinds of things do you all do to prevent the dreaded phrase, "my back hurts"? We do tons of soft landings, we have changed our warm up and stretches, limited back arching skills and have a physical therapy assistant doing exercises with them, and yet it persists! Any ideas?

    Lower right back pain

    Recently for a couple of days, I have had lots of back pain in my lower right back. I know being a gymnast means you get back pains a lot, and I have experienced those. This is different though. Usually, my regular sore back is just a dull feeling around my whole lower back. Nothing that really...
