I feel this, this morning. Had a back spasm on the walk in for no reason, still hurts like hell 2 hrs later :(
And it's so hard to resolve. Your doctor will tell you to do certain stretches but it never helps me. Just rest.
Rest was standard of care 30-40 years ago. We stopped doing that because inactivity leads to muscle atrophy and further spinal stabilizer muscle atrophy, thus greater spinal instability.
So just die?
Yes, I'm sorry. May the iron grant you a swift passing.
It sounds weird, but the best I've found is running. When I'm in running season, I tend not to get back spasms, and if I do they are mild and only last a day or two. In the winter when I don't run, a back spasm hurts like hell for a week or longer. I'm guessing it's my shoulders moving up and down with each stride? I don't know, but something about it helps immensely.
Glad that helps you. I wish I didn't work every day for 11 hours so i could try.
Boop beep I got delete.
