I don't boogie board anymore. I did a face plant in my 51rst year and it took a few years to get over the pain/disk damage, etc. I could do it again but the thought of not being able to write, of needing my mate to dress me, or not even being able to sit at my desk keeps me from it. I gave away my board last year after years of never using it. Now I'm 66 and I envy my friends who still do it but I love to drift around in the water.
I sure hope not but it doesn't take much to do it. The good news is how resilient the spine can be even if the pain visits on and off for the rest of life. It's kind of like a perfect biofeedback mechanism. It let s me know when I need to resume yoga, get out if the chair or just take a walk (unburdened). It has helped me set limits without limiting me in any if the important areas of my life. Good luck. I hope you feel better soon.

I am wondering whether I might have done some disk damage this week...oy.
