What Should I Do For Pain In The Lower Back And Abdomen After Lifting A Heavy Object?
I was lifting a very heavy object and felt a loud pop in my back which caused me to see stars, feel like I was going to through up and pass out. Made it to a chair and sat for a while until pain eased some. Was able to get up and walk but with pain in my lower back. Now my abdomen feels sore and abnormal. What do you think has happened and what should I do?

Hello,
The pain in the lower back you have is likely to be a muscle spasm. You need to have rest and do a hot compress. Local analgesic gel and oral muscle relaxants will also help.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
