Ouch

Ok so I have been going for massage therapy on my back and neck consistently since Feb and things are getting better however each time I go my lower back goes into spazms and it takes me forever to actually get off the table and once I do get of the table I can barely move and am in intense pain. Well 8 years ago I was in a bar car accident and did a lot of damage to my lower back. I had thought most of it had healed since I was no longer in constant pain and was able to move fairly well. Now there were days that the pain was bad and I couldn't barely move I chalked that up to a pinched nerve that I aggravated every so often. Well its been a couple of weeks since my last treatment and that in itself wasn't supposed to send me into spasms since it was a hot stone massage well wee were both wrong it was the worst spasm yet not as painful but over an hour and twenty minutes to get off the table and that was with my friend/therapist working on me constantly. The pain and spams start in my lower lumbar spine and radiate all around the front of my pelvis and down my legs so that I can not stand up straight without first thrusting my hips forward and bending my knees. While talking it over I asked it maybe I had a bulged disc again since that was one of the issues from the car accident. Turns out that very well could be the issue.
Now I can't even do a load of laundry without it spazing or walk around window shopping for a couple hours without seizing up and being in pain later.
It's uncomfortable to sleep its hard to sit for long periods of time or stand or doing anything that is considered part of normal daily life. I go to see my family doctor on the 30th I think either I have re-injured it or in getting the muscles finally healed I am finally feeling everything I should have been feeling after the accident who knows only an MRI will give me answers right now I would just like to be pain free
