My lower back is in pain due weight lifting . What can i possibly do to take the pain away ?
Sep 5, 2013

Dr. Thierry Yazbek Surgery
First step to do is stop weight lifting.
Second , get rest, because most back pain gets better with a few weeks of home treatment and careful attention. A short period of bed rest is OK, but more than a couple of days actually does more harm than good. Continue your daily activities as much as you can tolerate. Light activity, such as walking and daily activities of living, is usually OK.
Third, you can take pain killers, such as acetaminophen or nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs......Both types of medications are effective at relieving back pain.
