I am 13 years old and yesterday I had to lift one of those 28 foot fiberglass ladders to get a ball from the roof so I had to lift the ladder from benith it in order for the ladder to touch the roof (I lifted the ladder like the people who work on big weights). I only lifted it in less than one minute. I did't feel that the ladder was that heavy (although it was 28 foot tall) becuase it was made from fiber glass.

The next day, I felt a horrible pain by the tail bone area and by the lowest part of the backbone.

I only feel the pain when I sit down or bend my body. I wanna be tall when I grow because I wanna play pro BKB when I grow.

Is the pain a sign that I won't grow anymore? Will I stop growing? Will I grow improperly? Please help me!!!

You don't need to worry about this affecting your growth. This is probably a muscle spasm, and less likely a pinched nerve. The muscle spasm will go away in a few days, but pinched nerves might take a little longer. Spasms can be relieved by taking a magnesium supplement several times a day, along with something like ibuprofen or alleve to reduce any inflammation. After things returns to normal, situps, stertching, and exercises to strenghten the muscles in you butt and hamstrings will prevent this from becoming a common occurence.
