Depends: As long as you dont need depens (penicillamine) and your legs still work, resting, use of a hot pad that won't burn, nonsteroidals, and waiting for a week or so before spending unneccesary money on useless tests such as xrays mri's and nerve conduction tests.---and I do these tests in the office, as well as nerve blocks. After the back is better, start on williams exercises to prevent further attacks, but go slo.

Back Pain: I agree most back pains like you describe are short lived.So rest your back, do not lift heavy objects as they put more strain on your back, moist heat, nonsteroidal over the counter meds and muscle relaxants will help, but if it persists or gets worse, than see you family doctor, and i agree there is nothing to gain by the expensive tests unless pain persist/gets worse.
