What do you suggest if my spine feels like its got a cramp?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Can try heat or cold: Treatment for a cramp of spine should include resting with ice or heating pad whichever feels better. You can also try non-steroidals like ibuprofen and some rest. If none of these modalities help then I would see your physician who may prescribe physical therapy or a chiropractor. If indicated plain X-rays may be ordered. Good luck !
