Suggest Treatment For Severe Back Pain
I apparently hurt my back somehow. It feels like a pulled muscle but its now been three days with no relief. If anything, the pain is worse. I ve tried Tylenol, biofreeze, and switching between heating pad and ice pack. Have tried resting back, have tried stretching back, cracking it. Nothing is helping. Is there anything else I can try before heading to the hospital?

Hello thank you for writing us here.
Back pain could be managed by application of diclofenac sodium and analgesic like paracetamol. Also make sure you don't put lot of stress on your back. You'll feel better in a couple of weeks. No strain on back remember.
God bless you
Best regards,
Dr Gunjan
