How To Treat Left-sided Lower Back Pain Caused Due To A Sprain?
While playing tug of war with my students , I think I pulled something in my back. I am having pain on my lower back side on the left. It hurts to sit and stand depending on the position. I m fine when I m still in bed but endure discomfort if I change positions. I can t bend or squat without some type of pain. I don t know if I pulled a muscle or something else
