I am considering getting lipo 360 but l am a bit nervous about the pain. 7 yrs ago l lifted a really heavy bag and l twisted my hip it rotated to the right. I get sciatica sometimes if my lower back gets tight from doing to much. I can’t lift heavy or work out as hard as l use to because i’ll get pain down my right leg.
