Low Back Pain or Sciatica? Don't Panic!

Mon, 17 Jun 2013 04:35:10 EDT

I evaluate and treat many patients with low back pain or sciatica, and one of the most frequently asked questions from patients who have recovered is, "What do I do first if this terrible pain strikes again?" Usually during treatment, I speak with my patients about prevention of future problems. Low back pain tends to be an episodic condition, and many patients experience episodes from time to time. Part of their treatment focuses on postural correction and simple exercises to prevent problems in the future. But when low back pain strikes suddenly, many patients are confused about what to do. Rest assured, there are usually a few simple emergency back pain self-care strategies to quickly get you moving again is an episode of sudden onset, acute back pain strikes. The first step: Don't panic. Most low back pain tends to get better with just a few exercises. These typically involve lying face down, propping up on your elbows, and performing press ups for your back. If you have acute low back pain, be sure to check out Emergency Self-Treatment for Low Back Pain. Remember, a visit to your doctor or physical therapist is always a good idea when acute low back pain strikes.
