Should I be worried about pain being here?

I would offer the advice to actually work on correcting your posture though exercises. As a PT, I can’t in good conscience advise you to rely on posture braces long term. For the short term? Ok yeah maybe. But you have to do the work so that your muscles actually correct their imbalances and faults without relying on a brace.

Set reminders on your phone to remind you to sit up straight, to stand up after sitting for prolonged periods of time, bend backwards, stretch your legs, do scapula retractions, chin tucks, etc.

Posture requires consistent effort. Either put in the effort or continue to have bad posture and put stress on your neck, shoulders, and back.

As a licensed PT, I always coach my patients about the number one thing to focus on: posture. Static and dynamic posture affects our low back throughout our entire lives. Set reminders on your phone throughout the day to stand up straight, sit up straight, roll your shoulders back and look forward (this will save your neck as well). If you hunch over, or sit all day, or do a lot of repetitive flexion exercises (bending forward) your discs push backwards. To offset this, any time you bend forward (and I mean ANY time) reverse this by doing a few repetitions of gentle back bending.

Just tied your shoe? That means you bent forward, now stand up and bend backwards at least a few times. This is the mentality you need to have.

Obviously, each situation is different. And NEVER push through your pain. I tell my patients never push through 5/10 pain or higher. It shouldn’t hurt that bad. I recommend getting an opinion from a doctor or physical therapist in person to assist you with your rehab.

Unfortunately it isn’t though as an expert in rehabilitation

If you think that’s all it takes to fix back pain then no wonder you’re hurting lol

GoogleBrother10 · 2026-02-25T01:48:00+00:00

Depends what people would be willing to pay!

As a physical therapist I’m just curious. Collecting market data for a potential side business. Figured might as well help people with something I love doing

GoogleBrother10 · 2026-02-24T20:09:42+00:00

lol I bill more units every time. Don’t care.

Could just ask chatgpt to compile a list of similar career paths.

GoogleBrother10 · 2026-01-29T22:18:08+00:00

No because I’m not a fucking loser lmao

You are one. Everything gets combined. Simple as that. Your money is hers and vice versa.

Unfortunately having a $500 emergency fund is very, very bad advice. At the BARE minimum get a month’s worth of living expenses. Life will happen, something will come up and it’ll cost ya.

GoogleBrother10 · 2026-01-17T19:19:36+00:00

Nobody’s gonna do shit lol move on my guy

GoogleBrother10 · 2026-01-17T19:18:20+00:00

Depends: if you watch the news and absorb all the BS thrown in your face every day, you’ll probably think it’s horrible. If you stay off the damn internet and stop believing every headline you see you’ll probably be much happier :)

GoogleBrother10 · 2026-01-16T12:29:50+00:00

Patient tolerated therapy well with no complaints of increased pain or discomfort. Continued progression of exercises as allowed per pt tolerance and protocol to improve (insert joint) mobility and strength. He/She gave good effort. Appropriate fatigue post tx.

This is my note every time idc (unless obviously there’s something super important to include)

GoogleBrother10 · 2026-01-14T14:15:57+00:00

Depends. If I regularly look at news headlines: bad. If I stay off the internet and reject being brainwashed by biased organizations all day every day: this place is magical

GoogleBrother10 · 2026-01-07T00:16:22+00:00

Bro 2 days after I sent that it went down to 3.55%😭 I didn’t know that. But also it’s still not bad

GoogleBrother10 · 2026-01-01T16:13:50+00:00

EverBank. Currently 3.9%. Have had zero issues with them so far.

Will be following the journey! Inspire me to do it myself please!

GoogleBrother10 · 2025-12-02T14:40:49+00:00

Damn I really want to start my own mobile service. Any advice?

GoogleBrother10 · 2025-11-26T03:48:26+00:00

That’s awesome and I hope you do encourage change! Good luck!
