what is the treatment for sprained back?!


Question: i have pulled a muscle or sprained my back
Answers:
First, let's differentiate between pulled muscles and sprains. Sprains involve over-stretching tendons. Tendons connect bone to bone to form a joint. So, unless your back is hurting at a joint, your pain is probably due to a pulled muscle, or a strain.

When you strain a muscle, muscle fibers actually tear as a result of over-stretching. Muscle rest and ice will help for the first few days, then heat as the pain subsides, and then light stretching and/or exercise.

I am not a doctor, but I would imagine if the pain doesn't decrease some each day, I would see a doctor immediately. Since everyone is different, the treatment may differ due to the site of the muscle and the situation when the strain occurred.
