What's the diagnosis: Hard to give concrete advice without knowing what your diagnosis is. If youare overweight, weight is really helpful for back pain. Other things to try are physical therapy, stretching, Ibuprofen or alleve, heat, acupuncture, and massage. Here's are links on low back pain for more information: http://www.Mayoclinic.Com/health/back-pain/ds00171 http://www.Mayoclinic.Com/health/low-back-pain/my01803.
