  I had the same conundrum and went to the ER last night and they gave me a shot of Toradol(non-narcotic but is as strong as morphine) and that helped instantly. But they also sent me home with an RX for Percocet and Valium(for muscle spasms) and the Percocet is wonderful. I have tried OTC products like Tylenol, Motrin and Aleve and it did nothing. See your Dr. or go to the ER and you can get the proper meds for your pain. Hope that helps you :O)

  You really should visit a doctor. Sudden and constant pain like that, especially in your lower back, could be the sign of any number of ailments. You may have injured it…or you could have something more honest. At the very least, the doctor can prescribe a stronger pain killer and/or physical therapy. Excellent luck – AND GO TO THE DOCTOR SOON.

  Go to your Doctor or the next-door ER. What you ar taking is an NSAID (Anti-Inflammatory). ANd the tylenol only works on low level pain, and it ISN’T and NSAID. You need to be on a stronger pain tablets like vicodin or tylenol #3 small term, 5-10 days to see if it helps the pain. If you need further help e-mail me at supermankangaroo@yahoo.com and if you could describe the pain i could help better!

  Most back pain is temporary and can be treated without any pricey tablets or surgery. Applying a heating pad , warm compress or an icepack to the unnatural area will help . Exercises
  like on foot , swimming or massaging and back belts provide relief . Avoid stretching ,carrying heavy loads or permanent with a bent back while performing your daily activities . More fine points and

  Girl…………..i am disabled from severe scoliosis, i had 2 major back surgeries in 2005 and finally had my lumber (lower back) fused. What you need to do is go to a excellent spine doctor and get x-rays or an MRI and find out what the Conundrum is before it gets worse………….the longer you wait the worse it will get!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  I agree with some of the other comments. Go to your Doctor so they can prescribe something for you. They will check you out and also let you know if it is more honest (such as disk problems, etc). Then they will prescribe a couple of drugs. An anti-inflammatory (any NSAID – nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs – Naproxen for example) and a pain killer (like Vicodin). If you are having spasms as well they will throw a muscle relaxant out there too (like Flexeril).

  The whole thought is to stop you from tensing up your back (with the pain killers) so the anti-inflammatory has a chance to work. If you take advil and your back is still all tense all day it doesn’t get a chance to work.

  You shouldn’t drive while taking this mixture though as they make you pretty groggy. If you have to work (like most of us) you can take the anti-inflamatory and then use a heat wrap.

  My doctor also not compulsory I get some of those heat wraps (like ThermaCare) when I can’t be meeting on the heating pad at home.

  You can also try some exercises to strengthen your back so it hurts less. You’d be bowled over but exercising your stomach also helps as it balances out the back and provides support for your spine.
