Orthopaedic Surgeon, Joint Replacement, Dr. Saurabh Gupta's Response
Hello, Thanks for your query.
It appears you may have strained the muscles of your lower back. I would suggest the following- * Adequate rest for a few days * Ice packing over the affected area once in 2 hours * Once the acute pain subsides, Moist heat application over the affected muscles * Gradual & gentle stretching exercises * analgesic & muscle relaxants as needed
Do not take extra dose of mobic without consultation of your doctor.
I do hope that you have found something helpful and I will be glad to answer any further query. Take care
