In the last year or so, this has happened to me maybe 3 times.
Never happened before that.
So the problem is, first my left hip starts to hurt a bit.
The pain gradually worsens and hurts especially when I take weight off that leg, or put more than half my body weight on it.
Then a day or two later, my back starts to lock up.
I don't even know how to describe it except:
If I lean left or right or put any angular force on my spine, every muscle in my back locks up instantly, and they do it hard enough to stop my movement and breathing. I have to hold myself up with my arms on a countertop or table because if I didn't I would fall down from the pain.
I pretty much have to keep my spine perfectly straight and I'm ok. I can't take deep breaths because if I do, it relaxes my back muscles too much and in turn allows my spine to move a bit too much and the lock up follows.
The other problem here is that I'm only 26. I shouldn't be having this kind of problem and I have not suffered any accident or injury or sports injury to cause this... It comes out of nowhere.
Anyone know what could be happening?
