    I partial ruptured back a couple decades ago. The memory has faded but I remember my abdomen hurting so bad I could barely sit. I was laid up for a week before a parent brought me to the ER. Needless to say, it was an experience I do not wish to repeat ever. Wouldnt use ball crushing as more whenever I moved it felt like someone kicked me in them, hard.
