No pain in the morning felt it coming on after lunch and feels it was from doing towels and the motion of twisting and reach over to put them on the machine for folding and then even grabbing the stack and transferring onto the belt.

Feels it was from doing towels which is the motion of moving body left and right to grab towels and feeding them onto the Ironer for folding.
