I have lower back pain for a year now it all started when i tried to pick something up heavy and dropped it while holding on it what could be wrong?

Get an eval: Pain lasting a year suggests serious injury, or repeat injury to same site. You need an accurate diagnosis which can be given by a PMR, orthopoedist, neurologist, or pain doctor. While I can list common problems causing this symptom, a work up with diagnostic testing and a thorough physical exam offers the best answer for you.
