Yep agree.
All sorts of medical advise gets thrown around on the forums by unqualified people. Probably guilty of it myself. Better off seeing someone who actually knows what they are talking about.
Most doctors however will tell you to stop lifting lol, as if lifting anything heavy is the cause of the injury, as opposed to bad technique, or other underlying conditions.

This is where people go wrong. They go to a GP or some shitty Physio. Go to good sports doc or a Physio that deals with sports people. Tell them what you have wrong and what you need to get back to doing.
Exactly Baz, I have found most GP's have no clue or just don't give a squirt of goats piss about anything other than simple stuff, colds, asthma, prescribing needless shit. I said most, some do a give a shit and have an idea but most don't.

Yep, this, last time I went to a doctor, it turned out to be some skinny indian guy who asked me if I did steroids and that that could be the cause of my problem and that I probably lift too much weight and that it's bad for me.
Think about it from a GPs perspective. Patient comes in and says my back hurts when ever I squat. He thinks pretty simple, well don't fucking squat then.
Despite what powerlifters think life will still go on without squats.
Isn't not really the GPs fault they don't specialize in it. But they probably should refer you onto someone.
Mine too. He prefers that I don't keep going back so gets the job done right in one or at most two treatments, unlike a lot of physios and chiros who make you report to them week after week, just 'for a checkup'..
