Thanks guys. I'd heard that elsewhere and frankly didn't believe it. Seems counter intuitive for some reason.
On standing, I've heard that you should -
1. Brace your back against the wall and lean into it with your knees bent
or
2. Put your arm behind your back for support then try to bend your knees as the sneeze occurs.
Today someone at work, also with lower back issues, said he leans over a bit like a shortstop waiting for the pitch and puts his hands on his knees. Sort of a squatting position with his legs out to the sides a bit. Anyone ever tried that?
- Off to the doc in the morning. Steroid shot(s) likely, then scheduling the physical therapy.
