Back and joint pain
For a while my back has been in quite some pain. Sometimes I bend over or lean down to get something and all of a sudden I find it little difficult to breath and I cant get up. It's almost like a cramp yet the pain is like stabbing or burning kind of feeling, after it isn't so painful I can get up. Ever since this has started my knees, hands, and neck have done the same thing. I ride horses, and play sports but I have done it my entire life. Could this just be soreness or should I see a doctor?
