I'm sufferring from back pain for four days straight now. on the first day, it was hard to stand from lying down. i keep on applying hot compress. ?

ER/UC clinic: You will need an examination and imaging. Hot compresses are useless after 4 days. I suggest both Aleve ( if not allergic ) and Bio-Freeze liniment, until you can be seen. Go today!
