You must now pay $ELEVENTY-BILLIONTEEN DOLLARS (and 0.99 cents postage) if you want to see her ALIVE! (Significantly less if you're not keen on her being alive.)

I tried to simply move my bike over 6 inches to have easier access to box and have pulled something in my back

As we get older it doesn't take much. You could herniate a disk if you sneeze while bending over to grab leftovers out of the refrigerator. A doc told me that once when he reviewed my MRI and pointed out why I had pain shooting down my right leg especially around my ankle (classic symptom of lumbar disc herniation).

1- Live with it (with or without potentially addictive pain meds such as oxycodone)
2- PT to hope to resolve the herniation using exercises designed to sort of realign the spine and reduce or eliminate the bulging disk but if it's completely herniated it won't do muchof anything
3- Surgery, typically microdiscectomy. The surgeon makes a small incision about an inch long, goes in there with almost miscroscopic tools and removes the herniated material. You'll feel like your back is frozen solid for about a week afterwards but if successful the pain will be gone.

When it comes to back surgery, one of 3 outcomes. It gets better, it gets worse, it stays the same. With new medical technology the odds are better for a cure or at least reduction of symptoms that can then be treated with PT.

Until and unless you decide to do something about it, don't lift anything heavy, say more than 30 lbs. If you must lift something that has weight to it don't bend over and pick it up with your back which you gotta keep straight. Lift with your legs.

You're at risk for worsening the hernia, or worse yet, given that disc problems don't occur in isolation, you've probably got one or more bulging disks that could easily rupture.

None of this is life threatening or will cause paralysis or anything like that. It's estimated that over a third of the population is walking around with herniated disks and don't know it, because it's all about which direction the herniated tissue goes. If it's in any other direction but the nerve, you'd never know. But if it hits the nerve, that's when all hell breaks loose.

It's all about the pain and whether it's bad enough to do anything about it.

I've also read that sometimes with exercise and weight loss if the person is overweight, the condition can possibly self resolve.
