A member asked:

If i had a sharp pain in my back should i be worried ?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

No: From your question it appears that the pain went away. It was likely a muscle spasm and nothing to worry about. You should exercise about 150 minute/week and have a healthy diet. Get HPV vaccine. If you are sexually active, practice safe sex.
