A member asked:
Sudden middle back pain in yesterday, still hurts today. slightly improved, especially with ibuprofen & hot shower. is it most likely muscle injury?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Possibly: You may have strained a muscle or ligament supporting your spine. It's also possible that you injured your disc. Usually pain will improve over 1-2 weeks with rest and anti-inlfammatories. If the pain last longer than two weeks I recommend seeing your physician.
