Lower back pain

I am on Day 4 of 14 of an water fast, and experiencing extreme lower back pain and upper leg pain, is this okay? Is it just part of the process or can it be something serious. Not keen to quit my fast so hoping for some help.

Welcome to our fasting forum!

I know a lot of people who experience joint and muscle pain when fasting and it’s normally due to fasting. Just make you are taking electrolytes and magnesium which will relax your muscles. If you are really worried then you could stop or see a doctor. Quite a few of us are fasting if you want to join us. I will send you a message from the group.

Thanks! I appreciate that
