I had lower back pain about that time. I also noticed that my posture was bad. I'm not sure what it is, but it might have something to do with weight re-distribution. I worked on my core trunk muscles and learned to sit straight.

My lower- mid lumbar has been very sore since surgery. I use ice packs on it a lot. My tailbone also hurts from sitting more than usual. I'm 11 days out and today is the first day I almost feel human. I also had to take a sock and cut the foot out and the top out and put e-ointment on my right elbow. It seems I used my right elbow to get out of bed and to prop while trying to twist to take care of personal business and I caused my elbow to be raw. My back is starting to feel a little better. I still have sharp pains in my left shoulder, though I walk a lot and take a lot of gas medication.

I've been having lower back pain as well. For me, it comes from walking. I'm big and I have a huge pannus and I think it's just pulling on my back.

I'm rather frustrated because I deserpately need to exercise, but virtually everytime I do I pull something. My second week I pulled my right groin muscle and right lower back. Once that was feeling better, I pulled something in my left lower back. And no, I'm not walking an excessive amount. I'm doing 10-15 minute walks.

I think I need to lose another 50 pounds and then I should be "small" enough to fit in the largest-sized compression garmets. Hopefully that will help me.

I got back pain and it turned out to be chest wall syndrome. Very painful but fixable.
