Could exercise cause a flare up. Yesterday I used a leaf blower for about 45 mins. Could the swinging action be the cause of a really bad flare yesterday evening and into the early hours of this morning.Not to bad now just very sore all down left side.

    I find if I do a lot of strenuous work I get pain in my lower left side so I try not to over do it   I don't know if it is that caused it or not but I treat as such

    Hi Malcolm, for me, yes exercising has caused flares in the past. Just take it easy today, hopefully it will clear up for you.
