If the back pain is of short duration then please try the following:
Regular painkillers
Maintain good sitting posture
Maintain good standing posture
Take regular breaks if sitting for long
Use ice packs on back
Continue to stay active
Avoid any activities which put stress on the back
If the pain does not improve in another 3-4 weeks with this regime or if you start to get any pain down the legs, then see an Orthopaedic Spine Surgeon for further assessment and management.
