WHAT TO DO

-Get a doctor to identify the cause before anything else is done

1. Do not just retire to a soft sofa

2. Take one day of rest or two days at most after the onset of pain

3. Ice bags are helpful at this stage along with doctors prescribed muscles relaxation and non- steroidal anti inflammatory medications.

4. After that get up on your feet and start walking, walk through the pain.

5. Prolonged Bed Rest will do more harm than good; because rest causes your back muscles to weaken rapidly.

6. Most back problems fortunately resolve themselves in four to twelve weeks.
