What happened

As I was positioning a patient on a 4 post spine table prone I was lifting the lower legs in order to move the foot boards north on the frame. The boards would not move because they seemed to be sticking to the frame. I was holding the patient 's legs with one arm and attempting to move the foot board with the other. As I was doing this my lower back felt strained. This occurred at approximately [REDACTED]. My lower back has progressively gotten more stiff and uncomfortable as the day goes on.
