Suggest Treatment For Muscle Cramps In The Chest

What should I do to stop intense muscle spasms/cramps on the right side lower back ribs. The muscle latissimus dorsi or muscle between my ribs tightens up to excruciating pain for about 10 seconds, I have about three an hour, it is like a bad leg cramp only in my back. I have been moving and lifting a lot the past two weeks and now I can t move and am exhausted from the pain.

Its muscle sprain, you might require muscle relaxant and antiinflammatory treatment along with it.

Do hot fomentation also.
