A member asked:
Please help! i am having sore back pains, should i worry if it's only been a day?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Treat conservatively: Back pain in a 34 year old is most likely from muscle strain. This will improve over time and with medications like tylenol (acetaminophen) or Ibuprofen as well as using a heat pad. If there is any leg weakness or bowel or bladder control problems you need to see your doctor as it might be something more seriously. If the pain does not improve, you should also see your doctor.
