We can injure our backs in so many ways: lifting something without using the proper technique, sleeping on an uncomfortable mattress, playing sports, or even just twisting wrong. Most of the time, back pain is caused by a sprain or a strain of the muscles in your back, so one of the best things you can do is give your back time to heal itself.

However, in the mean time, back pain can interfere with your daily life. To deal with the pain, you can try:

ice and heat: For the first 24 to 48 hours after you hurt your back, use ice to reduce swelling, muscle spasms, and pain. After that, switch to heat, which will help warm and relax sore tissues. over-the-counter medications: to know more about it contact us
