Lower Back Pain -- Acute

 

This is really an information web site and it is not easy to give general instructions on how to deal with the very common problem of a back that has "gone".

 

 It should be obvious from many other parts of this web site that I consider it essential to restore the wedge shape of the lowest lumbar joints and to limit their flexion particularly in sitting postures. 

 

The advice contained in the book "Treat Your Own Back" by Robin McKenzie is the most relevant self-help advice available.
