It is not as simple as your question suggests. Some people may have a perfectly healthy back and may have just hurt themselves, to allaviate this would be very easy, and simple painkillers may be appropriate.
If painkillers and anti-iflammatories do not work, it is obvious that there is another underlying problem. That can be, for example, a weak liver unable to process and help the assimilation of oils needed to keep the spine supple. In such a case painkillers and antiinflammatories make the situation only progressively worse. Or, the problem could be seated in the colon that may be congested or very weak and unable to absorb calcium and vitamin C. That would lead to weak bones and joints and a weak immune system, which could lead to constant inflammations and back pain. Eventually, the discs get worn, if they are not replenished due to ailing digestive organs, and serious back problems are the result.
Unfortunately, the medical profession do not look at the cause, only at the symptoms. Which is why a chronic back pain patient walks out of the surgery clutching a prescription for drugs that make things in the long run only worse.
If you would like me to advise on your situation, and with the unique method that I work with I can do it at a distance, perhaps you would like to have a look at the Dhaxem website.
You would need quite strict diets and some body cleanse to start repairing your back. For that you would have to be disciplined.
I hope that the above is of assistance when it comes to understanding the origins of chronic back aches.
Best wishes.

cold pack for no more than 20 minutes at a time does wonders!! Also a simple stretch on the floor on all fours, first arch you back like a cat does and the release, do this 10 times. i have a bad back and these things have always helped me. I see alot of people saying to apply heat and any good doc or physical therapist will tell you heat is the wrong way to go!!

If it's muscle strain then it mostly takes time. Apply ice for 10-15 minutes every few hours for the first day then start applying heat. Avoid any lifting to prevent reinjury but gentle stretching and walking are good. NSAIDs (anti-inflammatories) like ibuprofen can be taken with the Tylenol and alternate them so you are taking something every couple of hours.

Make sure you have correct body posture at all times. Simple changes to everyday things can make a difference. Bend your knees when picking up something from the floor. While doing the dishes, stand with your legs apart. When you sit in the car make sure your legs are aligned with your body. Don't sleep on your tummy and if you sleep on your back place a pillow under your knees. Hope this helps.

First of all one has to find the cause of the pain. If it is due to over weight then try to reduce your weight. It can be due to some injury in your back bone. For such kind of back pain treatment is acupuncture, yogic exercises.
However find out the cause first and then start treatment. Spinal injections are also prescribed by doctors.

If that's that painful, bypass see your rfile. pronto! in any different case, attempt to no longer walk long distances; once you will possibly desire to, placed on braces (can get from rfile., Walgreens, often any drugstore) and/or an ACE bandage, and supportive shoes. do no longer do numerous athletic interest that's complicated on the joints (e.g. working of any type). once you perform a little sort of unavoidable actual interest (which there is fairly no excuse for) ice your hips, ankles, and knees. in basic terms bypass undemanding for awhile and it would help. If it would not bypass on your physician.

I would try using Aleve coupled with a good hot bath to relax the back muscles. That has worked for me.
