Severe Pain In Lower Back, Difficulty In Breathing. Taking Naprosen, Got Relief, Later Pain Started Again. Any Ideas?

Two days ago I suddenly had severe pain in my middle/lower back region. This pain is both left and right of the spine; I went to sleep last night then woke in pain around 2.00am. Any movement caused severe pain and I had difficulty breathing. I took two Naprosen and the pain dissipated. However the pain has now returned although not as painful as last night. Any ideas

Hi,
Thanks for posting your query.
From description low back pain seems to be due to muscle spasm. Doing hot fomatation and applying muscle relaxant gel will be helpful. Avoid forward bending and heavy weight lifting. If it persist consult orthopaedic for proper evaluation.
Hoe this will helps you.
Regards.
