  Stahrk asked:

  Does anyone know a doctor or physical therapist who might be feeling rather kind? Short and sweet - somehow hurt my lower back. No sudden, sharp pain or anything, but a dull ache that's been increasing in severity over the last month or so. It's at the point where, while I'm sitting down or in the car, I'll have sharp pain that extends down to my upper legs. It's really starting to scare me, but I don't have insurance and really can't afford to go see a doctor. Would love the chance to talk to someone about it.

  Sounds roughly like [sciatica](http://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/sciatica/basics/definition/con-20026478). However, it could be worse. There are lots of resources now for health coverage, no matter what your income level is. At the lower level, you have [Parkland system](http://www.parklandhospital.com/phhs/parkland-healthplus.aspx) which is legally obligated to provide healthcare to poor people. they also can help with a lot of other programs. A little higher all the way to the top, check out healthcare.gov.
