For the past 2 days, my lower back feels sore when i stand and when i bend over, i feel a sharp and startling pain. does this mean i strained my back? i had a severe contusion on my lower back about 9 months ago but i am not sure if this is related.

Could be: kindly see your doctor for assessment, you may need some imaging studies on your spine, meanwhile, rest, warm compresses and pain killers, wish you well
