Prolotherapy?

I don't know anything about that but I can suggest Yoga to you Bob. Regular strengthening should help. That and keeping your stomach tightened.

I hear you on the sitting, it seems inactivity will bring on pain, I think it is those muscles softening but on the other hand you don't want them in spasm either.

Tried it all, core work at the gym and stretching is always part of my routine and two yoga classes a week. It all helps it get worse I suspect, but none of it is making it all that much better.
