Re: Lower back pain
I had the same thing, but I also have back problems. My recommendations are get up and walk around about every hour. When you lie down stack a couple pillows under your bent knees. Ibuprofen helps with internal swelling. Use a heating pad on your lower back. If you are cleared for baths, take a leisurely soak, and if that doesn't do the trick if you still have your pain pills take one just before bed so you can rest. Oh, and don't sit upright for too long. Hopefully it will stop in a few days.
