I have back pain for last 5-6 years and it got severe for the last 6 months or so. I consulted with a neurologist and he said there is some problem in my lower spine and advised to swim daily and some exercise everyone of which includes bending my back to the back side. I need a second opinion and that's why I am here. Please help me out here ?
