Running-induced lower back pain can sometimes mask more serious issues if not addressed correctly. I once ignored it and ended up with a prolonged recovery because I tried to push through. Please see a sports physiotherapist or an orthopedic doctor, they can identify the exact cause and give a safe recovery plan. Don't risk further injury.

It's so frustrating when something you love, like running, causes you pain. I've felt that disappointment. It makes you question everything. Just know that this doesn't mean you have to give up running forever, but finding the right solution, probably with a professional, will get you back on track.

Dekho, running se back pain hai toh kuch toh galat hai. Warm-up achhe se karo, aur running shoes sahi hain ki nahi check karo. Lekin agar pain baar baar ho raha hai, toh seedha doctor ke paas jaao. Khud se try karoge toh aur problem ho sakti hai. Take care, beta.

Running back pain can be quite troublesome, I understand. My elders would suggest resting and applying warm oil, but honestly, for something like running-related pain, it's best to consult a sports doctor or a good physiotherapist. They can properly assess your running form and suggest specific exercises. Please prioritize that.
