What Causes Lower Back Pain After Standing For Sometime?
I did a lot of heavy lifting 9 days ago. Ever since then, standing more than 5 or 10 minutes causes sharp stabbing pain in my lower back around to my hip area that takes my breath away. The only thing that has helped it is rest, heat and/or bio freeze. It s sore in the morning and gets worse as the day goes on. Advil does not touch the pain, so I don t think it s muscle. Could it be a pinched nerve?

It's it's electric shock like pain , then probably disc compressing the nerve. Just back pain which is severe might be from back muscles weakeness.
