Best way to treat lower back and leg hurts?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Some generic advice: 1. Exertion and/ or vigorous exercise has the potential to cause intermittent aching over the lower back and legs. 2. Physical therapists and exercise physiologists can instruct on stretching and range of motion exercises, and McKenzie Back Exercises have often proved valuable over time. 3. Mild injuries often respond to acupuncture and massage. 4. Avoid bedrest if injured.
