What to do about back pain from playing golf.?
I'm quite physically capable, but I've always had lower back pain from doing tasks like working on a car engine (bending over with my head under the bonnet for hours at a time) and playing golf. It seems to be related to muscle inflamation. Is this something that will go away with enough training or am I damaging my back.

So long as it is just soreness, I wouldn't worry about it. My back will get sore under similar circumstances and I'm only 27…I'm sorry, I don't know how old you are. One thing that has started to help is that I've incorporated back exercises (like back extensions and superman exercises) into my work out. If you work out try doing an equal amount of back exercises for sit-ups or crunches that you may do. If you don't work out you can always try stretching your back. You can do this by simply hanging from a bar or laying flat on the floor and pulling your knees (one at a time or both together) to your chest and holding for a while. Hope this helps.

Do as much pull-ups as you can EACH day. This should loosen the tension on your back.

Naproxen sodium (Alleve) is good. So is Advil. You could see a doctor – only a doctor can determine if you're damaging your back (which you probably are) and if so, to what extent and how to best treat it.
