I have a bad back and i have a hockey trial tomorrow can anyone give me tips for stretches.?

Question

which stretches could i use to relive the pain and make it better

Answer 1

Lie on your stomach and arch your back for about 30 seconds. After that, find somewhere to sit and touch your toes. Stretching through twisting your back wouldn't hurt either.

Answer 2

PERKS--LOTS OF THEM--LOL

Answer 3

lean over and touch your toes...always helps me...if you are in a lot of pain try putting a hating pad on it or taking a hot shower/bath..or you could call your doctor and ask him about some good stretched...the doctor knows best

Answer 4

try the inverted-hurdle stretch.  if you dont no how to do dis, wat ya do is put 1 leg straight out or more towards the outside of your body, then tuck the other leg against the leg thats straight and attempt to touch your toes with your fingers and touch your knee with your nose along the straight leg.  when you reach with the arm closest to the straight leg, you'll feel a pull on your hamstring and when you reach with the arm farthest from your straight leg, you'll feel a pull on that shoulder.  hold for 15 seconds on each leg.  another stretch is in the strattle position.  its just like the inverted hurdle, only without the tucked leg.  hold for 15 seconds on each leg.  another one (i dont know what its called) is where you make one leg go straight in front of you (nowhere else) and the other leg crosses over and touches the other side of the knee on the straight leg.  if done correctly, when you lay flat on your back, it should look a 2-D triangle sitting on flat ground.  next you take one arm (opposite side of the crossing leg) and put the elbow on the knee of the crossing leg.  then take the opposite hand and put it straight behind you on the ground.  then look towards the wall behind you and try to turn around without moving your legs (whenever i do this, my back pops).  i no it sounds kinda tough, but its actually easier than it sounds.  hold for 15 seconds on each side.  another one is where you make one arm straight so its parralell with the ground.  then take the other forearm to the other side of the straight arm and pull towards the shoulder thats controling the pulling forearm.  when done correctly, you should feel a pull in the shoulder of the straight arm.  hold 12 seconds on each arm.  another one is the seal stretch.  all ya gotta do is just pose as a seal.  when done correctly, you should fell a pull in your lower back.

Answer 5

Ice for 20 minutes to reduce the swelling.

Most pain comes from swelling

then Ibuprophen (if you are allowed to)

Try lying on your back, bring your knees over your hips (like make a table with your legs).  Then drop your knees to the side, then back up to the middle, then drop your knees to the other side.

GOOD LUCK
