I've never had pain in my back from sex.

Whenever I have used the strap-on on other couples my back kills me the next day! I don't know how guys do this for any length of time, lol! But I do have hip issues since I ran a marathon a few years back, it will never be the same. Sometimes in the missionary position with my legs up for a long time, my back/hip aches the next day...till I get it cracked. It sucks getting old!

Sometimes in missionary position, my back will start to hurt really badly. Its one of the reasons we rarely use that position.

I sometimes get back pain from sex. I have arthritis in my neck which can get aggravated during sex sometimes.

I never experienced back pain from sex but sometimes I have pain in my calf muscles from tensing them.

He is literally twice my size. I'm under 100 lbs, he's probably at 210 now and a full foot taller than I am. The power behind his thrusts can be difficult to take after awhile, mostly from behind.

My shoulders, my lower back and hips take a beating. Can't really afford anything made by Liberator right yet, but I want the wedge ASAP.

I have a bad back anyway, so it's not hard to aggravate it.

I have three discs gone bad so anything can set it off.

sometimes but it is very infrequent and usually happens when I'm too vigorous or something

Just last week, we were really getting into it, I was on all fours pushing and grinding backward on his thrusting and I twisted and tucked my hips just right and tweaked an old injury.

Imagine your spine is a Rubix Cube. If you have ever played with one, you know you can twist the cube really fast, but sometimes in doing so, it can get stuck or feel like the pieces might come away from each other. Well, your vertebra are the same way, according to my PT who explained it to me. The first time I had this problem, 3 yrs ago, it felt exactly like that. This time was much the same (not nearly to the extreme as the last time), I was twisting, tucking and moving too fast and just tweaked my lower spine, near my tailbone.

All better now, but from what I have heard from friends of mine as well as my doctor, back pain caused by vigorous sex is very common.

He's more than twice my size, and I like him on top, lotta back pain.

Occasionally, although only if we've been in a flexed position for more than an hour or two. I know that the boyfriend gets really bad back pain though if he's on top for too long.

if you have back pain, you might be doing something your not supposed to. i would stretch afterwards, it might help a bit

I'm an athletic person, but I often experience back pain during prolonged positions. Unfortunately the pain is from a past car accident so I guess stretching and frequently switching positions is a way around the pain.

I have arthritis in my back and a few bulging discs too. If I've done my daily exercising and back stretches I'm usually fine, but if it's a day I haven't then my back kills me!

When I'm thrusting into him from the top, it sometimes kills my lower back... but I've been told to be more gentle, so I'm sure this is the issue.

Yes. I'm.....over 35. My Man is over 50. Yeah, good sex comes with back pain. *sigh* So worth it, though.

Probably the worst for me is being prone on the bottom. But, I hate Cowgirl, because my knees can't take it for long. Let him do the work.

Yes, it just comes with the territory for me. Haven't really found ANY position to help. That being said, my back is messed up and has been for years..

I sometimes bruise my cervix with my glass dildo - it can feel similar to back pain on the nex day but other than that - never.
