A member asked:

Lower back pain for over five years from a car accident and numbness from the waste down. what can i do for the pain?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Conservative measure: The best approach to low back pain is a conservative approach involving core muscle strengthening and intermittent use of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory medications. Staying active is key and maintaining an optimal body weight is also very important.
