I landed heavily on my back at rugby months ago and had back spasms at the time. now i'm still tight and sore. osteo just cracks my back. still sore?

Back soreness: Muscles spasm from an injury can last for some time if not treated long enough, for daily activities like sports/lifting/etc can exacerbate it. If bony structures of back are ok, doc might prescribe a muscle relaxer, which u can combine with otc NSAID for pain & inflammation. Moist heat & therapeutic massage help, too.
