How Can A Pulled Muscle On The Lower Back Be Treated?

i am just trying to report something that happened to me upon taking flexiril. 2 days after beginning to take it, I pulled a muscle in my right lower back while doing virtually nothing. 4 days later, I was feeling better then I pulled the muscle in my lower left back. again, for doing almost nothing. It has now been over 2 weeks and I am still recovering. I am worried that this might be my new normal state. If so, I am screwed. I quit taking the drug and my recovery has been extremely slow. I don t know if anyone else has had similar problems.

Hello,

As a tablet, Flexeril is also a muscle relaxant, but your symptoms not relieved. You can take tablet Myospas D instead of that. Along with that, you continue with physiotherapy as advised. Take rest for some days. You can do an x-ray back or MRI back after consultation. You can apply Diclofenac gel or Volini spray. I will suggest you review here with detailed history or consult with the orthopedician with reports.


Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Shyam B. Kale
