Low back pain: If you have strained your back,the muscles and soft tissues are injured and cause the pain. Ice cubes in a ziplock bag right on the lower back for 20 min every 1-2 hrs helps stop the spasm. Ibuprofen or tylenol for pain.If you experience pain that radiates to your leg below the knee,you would need to see a doctor as this can be due to a nerve impingement from a disc problem.
