As someone who has a bad neck and back at the age of 21, I sort of feel your pain. I was involved in 4 different wrecks all within one year, each which totaled my vehicle at the time(Yes, I was rear ended 4 times in one year..crazy). I also tore my back up during football. I have spent roughly a year straight at the Chiro and had both positive and negative results. Sometimes, It made me feel like heaven, other days it left me laying on the couch in pain.
Aleve has been a HUGE friend for the past couple of years. Overall however, the best thing for my back was weight lifting again.
I hope you find something that gives you relief because I know first hand that back problems can nearly ruin your life. Good luck man.

How is you back doing? Are you riding at all? I had a relapse over the long weekend and am battling to get back to where I was. My Chiro/PT gave me some gentle stretches to do for this week. Crap, I was doing well and starting to work out and get back into shape for Daytona. He claims I will be able to ride by the time we get there.

I used to have minor back pain especially when I was driving my car, I decided to try the chiropractor and was AMAZED at how much better I felt after a few weeks... He suggested that the pain was from one side of my back being worked more than the other so my muscles were working against each other. My positive results might be a direct result from the regular stretching and heat pad use the DR had encouraged me to do at home in my own time.. although the bi-weekly visits to the office for "adjustments" relieved tension, and left my back muscles feeling tender.
Its been about a year since my 6 month period of chiro treatment, and I can say that I feel "straighter" and don't have as much pain anymore.

The chiropractor is amazing. I hadn't been there in over three years until yesterday when I messed my neck up stretching of all things. I got out of bed and did the standard yawn, stretch, touch ear to shoulder when all of the sudden I had a horrible pain in the right side of my neck. I almost fell down it was that bad. I went to school, and had too look like a total goof cause I was holding my head at a 45 degree angle. I went to the chiro about two hours later and got some relief. Today I'm at about 85%, so it was 32 bucks well spent.
Hope things are going well for you Nick.

One thing i have noticed about going to the chiropractor is that when i stop going I feel worse. I need to keep going or the pain comes back. Maybe, hopefully, your body if different and you feel better man.

90% of your back pain is caused by excessive sitting for long periods of time. This causes your hip flexors to get extremely tight throwing your pelvis forward(if your belt buckle points down or you have a large curvature in your low back, its a good sign you have tight hip flexors).
Easy thing to do is a daily stretching of the hip flexors and quadriceps. Along with that, make sure you walk enough per day to help your posture(read my sticky on dynamic stretching and static stretching). I incorporate my xvest with 20lbs and do weighted walks a few times per week just for this purpose.
Main thing is keep moving and stretch those hip flexors daily(at least twice per day).
