I have sharp low back pain after weight lifting and it hurts while lying down please help
hello you will need some investigations to confirm the cause however the likely possibility is lumbar spondylosis with nerve compressions most importantly you should avoid heavy activities lifting heavy weights etc you will need an ray of spine ap anteroposterior and lateral view and may need an mri magnetic resonance imaging physiotherapy would be helpful you may continue to have alive naproxen according to need you may use local diclofenac gel or hot water fomentation we usually give patients a multivitamin like neurobion forte b12 which is good for nerves and next in the line is pregabalin which is a nerve stabilizer I hope this helps
