What happened
My patient who was being transported was big and tall with extra weight and my partner was a very short and slim female so I lift most of the pt weight when putting the pt on stretcher and during the draw shirt process I felt a sharp pain in my low back area I thought it would go away over the weekend but it did not so I went to the ER the doctor said I strained a muscle
