Having strong back pain (mainly shoulders, spinal cord) after sleeping on the floor for a few hours tonight. what to do against it? does aspirin help?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Back pain: Warm moist heat (shower or a wet warm towel) can help reduce the pain and stiffness. Anti-inflammatory medications such as aspirin can help too. Apply ice at night to reduce swelling. Perhaps, you can find a more comfortable place sleep tonight.
