Over a week ago I started having this lower back pain that bothers me while sitting, standing, or laying down. Its the worst while laying down, I can't sleep I keep tossing and turning all night. I also noticed I can't stretch my hamstrings anymore, I used to be able to bend over and touch the ground I can barely get past my knees now. I have been doing lots of cardio and leg work more then before. Can it be my hamstrings got so tight they are causing this?
I feel a similar weird pain in my hamstrings especially the left one. That's whats leading me to make this connection. Anybody ever have this happen? Or know anything about this, I literally can't sleep as I type this???

Yeah sounds like sciatica. This may sound crazy but if you wanna save your self a lot of pain and suffering you will listen. Buy some ascorbic acid, start using a table spoon every hour until you get gas or the runs. Once you do cut your dosage back to a table spoon three times a day.
Thanks guys, I'm looking into it and it sounds like it. Interested in the ascorbic acid remedy, will this heal it? Have you used this before?
I don't want to go to the doc and get pain meds and not heal this correctly.

Last night some hamstring stretches helped, I was able to go to sleep at least.

I have used the ascorbic acid for sciatica. It works better than ANYTHING else I have tried. I highly recommend getting some in your body ASAP. You'll be feeling better in a matter of days.
The high dose of vitamin c will help your body rebuild collagen, helping to replenish the discs. It's worth a shot. Works for me.
Ok I'll get some, read about it and it seems to have pain relief benefits. Idk if it will actually heal the flexibility issue I am having, I think only stretching will take care of that. I will give the ascorbic acid a try for its benefits though. Thanks for the suggestions.
I'm reading most docs will give you pain Meds for this and tell you to be on your way. If I can't cure it myself I will look into a chiropractor probably. Its pathetic how I can't stretch my hams right now.

I got vitamin c in high mg powder
I bought mine in bulk powder form on amazon. A daily serving is a 1/4 tsp, you wanna use a tsp every hour until your stomach says no more, by that time you should have some relief from pain. I'll look at the approx mgs when I get home... Hope this helps ya
Yea if you can look at the approximate mgs that would help. The pain went away during the day, I took two mgs of it already in tablet form.
