A lumbar sprain is an acute soft tissue sprain of the lower back. General treatment, physical therapy and medication can be used to relieve the symptoms.
1. General treatment: After spraining the waist, you need to rest in bed and reduce exercise, which can reduce the pain symptoms. If further activities, it may further aggravate the injury.
2. Physical therapy: You can promote blood circulation through hot compresses, massage, acupuncture and other measures to relax the lumbar muscles and relieve pain.
3. Medication: Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, such as ibuprofen and diclofenac sodium, can be taken appropriately to reduce inflammatory factors and alleviate pain.
If the symptoms appearing after twisting to the waist are serious, the activity is obviously limited, or accompanied by numbness and other symptoms of the limbs, it may be necessary to exclude whether there are lumbar vertebrae fracture, lumbar vertebrae body slippage and other diseases. The above medications need to be taken under the guidance of a doctor.
