Lumbar pain: I can tell by your list of ankle injuries you may be active or athletic. The sensation of tightness in your lumbar region would best respond to stretch and a gentle restorative yoga. The lumbodorsal fascia and paraspinous muscles are also accessible via skin penetration and OTC products like Salonpas patches, mentholated body balms can help along with therapeutic massage!
