Medications: Conservative treatment include pain medications muscle relaxant, Medrol (methylprednisolone) pack, physical therapy patches and avoidance of lifting heavy objects and prolonged sitting sit in a chair rather than an armchair and bend from your knees you should feel better soon if not see your doctor.
