Hi, I've been trying to get in shape and have been working out for a few weeks with out any problems. But last week I spent the night at a friends house and when I came home the net morning, my lower back was really sore. My mom and I thought it was just because I fell asleep sittng up on my friends couch but It's been really hurting all week. I've been using a heating pad and I've tried stretching, butit really hurts. It especially hurts when I bend down, sit down, or stand up. I was wondering what I could do to releve the pain?
Hi, From history it seems that there might be having strain and spasm of back muscles due to sleeping on some odd position leading to stiffness and spasm of back muscles. Take analgesic like Ibuprofen with muscle reaxant medicine for 2-3 days. Apply locally some muscle relaxant cream. Ok and take care.
