What Causes Severe Stabbing Pain In The Lower Back?
I have a stabbing pain that is constant and getting worse in my lower back, right side. My left hand only was tingling for 2 mornings in a row. I get relief by laying on my back with a tennis ball over the pain point and my knee pulled up to my chest.

Dear Patient,
your problem seems to be that of slipped disc,
I would advise you to get yourself some analgesics, get examined by your doctor and get an MRI done of the LS spine, on the advise of your doctor.
Once a clear diagnosis is made than only can we proceed towards treatment, till than take care not to lift any weight while bending, also, do not use any physical therapy unless the diagnosis becomes certain
