17 years old and I woke up with back pain on the left side between kidney and ribs. It feels better with ice but still have it after 1 week. it usually hurts if I try to bend or get out of the car. I am a golfer so I would like to know if I should stop golfing until it gets better.
Hi,It is likely muscle spasm.It is advisable to take rest and avoid golf for nearly two weeks. you may take analgesics and muscle relaxants to relieve spasm.
