Suggest Treatment For Severe Lower Back Pain

I am 58 and over weight. I leaned over to place several objects on a table to prepare for a yard sale. After straightening back up I felt like I had a catch in my lower back. It is very painful to stand up a walk after sitting or lying down. The pain feels like it is in the spinal area. What can I do to relive the pain?

Orthopaedic Surgeon 's  Response
Dear patient
it seems you have sprained your back. Treatment is tab Dan MR twice a day for 5 days with tab ultracet twice a day for 5 days. Take rest on hard bed. Avoid weight lifting for few days. Rest is as important as medications. if not relieved in 5 days please contact orthopaedic surgeon nearby your area.

neurotrophic drugs and rest
but if still pain persist kindly consult with an local spine specialist to find the root cause of pain and treat according to the findings
