Severe lower back pain can come from a variety of problems. One being from straining your back and pulling muscles; another is from chronic back pain from a long ago injury and you keep re-injuring your back. And it may even be kidney stone is on the right or left side of your back. The pain starts at your kidneys which are located at both sides of your lower back. You say its severe pain; this is not healthy you loose sleep and it affects your well being. Severe back pain needs the attention of a medical doctor; I don't particularly like chiropractors they tend to just eat up your money. An MD will get to the root cause of the back pain. If it is kidneys stones for example a chiropractor will focus on your back problems not the whole picture. If your mom decides not to see a doctor than I recommend warm towels to lower back and Ibuprofen 600mg every 6-8 hours; 800mg if she is over 200 lbs. Good luck and hope she feels better soon. Tell her no lifting over 5 pounds for now.
