A member asked:
While bending down to pick up cups from under a table at work my lower back started burning with pain. i tried icy hot patches and tylenol (acetaminophen) buhelp help?

Back strain: You likely strained muscles/ligaments in your lower back. The best treatment is ice or heat to the area, Ibuprofen for pain if you can take this, and avoidance of lifting/bending for a few days. If pain worsens, or you develop numbness or weakness in legs, or problems urinating or moving your bowels, see your doctor. Good luck!
