What's wrong with your back? I've had a herniated disc prblem for quite a few years now amongst other things. I'm meeting with the surgeon in July and probably going to do the discectomy thing. I've tried a lot of pain killers but nothing really helps nerve pain. If you have muscle problems, prescription anti-inflammatories work well, I take Naproxin for that.

I pulled my lower back while cutting out/cleaning up some pine trees my parents have in their yard. Been hurting off and on for nearly two weeks but has gotten bad over the past few days. The doctor gave me some cyclobenzaprine, a mild muscle relaxer, to take before bedtime. Should make my mornings go better.

If it's just muscular it should get better, muscle relaxants and anti flams work well. If you pop a disc that's a different thing all together, don't go there :cussing:
