I've been having pains at the base of my spine and to the right of the bottom of my back. I went to the doc and he did some tests (one where I had to pull both hands whilst he hit my knee) and he told me my back was weak. He told me to do some back strengthening exercises (which I've forgotten how to do) and come back in a month.
Right now it hurts. A few months back, whilst lying down, I had really sharp pains there, unbearable. Then it went away. Could it be that I was doing situps wrong? In PE, the teacher said that you only have to go up to 45 degree, if you go past 90, then your back starts working.

Take a hot bath with 2c. of dissolved Epsom salts. Soak for 30 minutes. The Epsom salts will help eliminate the lactic acid that forms on the muscles from over exertion.
Massage an analgesic cream into the sore muscles. I find the best cream for pain is “Blue Emu,” You can read more about this cream at http://www.blue-emu.com/
Advil soft gel capsules taken four times daily can really help with the pain.
Dehydration can cause severe pain in the muscles. I recommend you drink purified water mixed with mineral water 50/50. This will replace the minerals that are exiting your body continuously.
I suggest that adults and children drink 40 ounces of water per 100 pounds of body weight every day. Realize that exercise, ambient temperature, and state of health affect the water needs of your body. One tip for athletes: it is healthier to drink a sports drink or water than fruit juice, soda, coffee, or milk during competition or active training periods.
500mg of calcium and magnesium can help with the pain.
you should see your medical doctor as soon as possible to find out exactly what's wrong.

I'm 50, and whilst that occurs my wellness consultant has me take Ibuprofen (my prescription agony killer may not even paintings reason it is a further style of agony) & follow progesterone cream (in a further spot every time) from the wellness meals retailer as soon as an afternoon till my drift stops. The ibuprofen stops the agony, the progesterone fixes the hindrance for the following time round, for me no less than.
