Lower Back and left leg pain - Not sever

2018-04-18 23:28:26
Hi, I am experiencing pain on my lower back towards, left side and left leg. I went for workout after a break of 2 weeks, while warming up with barbell(no weights) doing squats, I felt a quick pain and shivering feel. After that, it was difficult for me to get up and do down. I went for a full body massage and improvement is there. However, I am scard of starting the workout again, as I concentrate on my back and legs alot. What could have been the possible reason for the jerk. Can this be fixed immediately. Please suggest.

It would be a muscle spasm which happens due to sudden jerky movements. However if you observe swelling over the lower back it would be advisable to get an x-ray done. Otherwise just rest and application of warm oil along with hot fomentation (hot water bag) for 3 to 5 days will relieve the spasm. Avoid any strainous activities during this period till the pain subsides.
Next Steps
Buy murivenna from any Ayurvedic store. Warm it up and apply twice daily. It will reduce the inflammation. Followed by hot water bag application
Health Tips
Avoid long hours of sitting or standing. And heavy wt lifting. Take rest the pain will slowly go away in 2 weeks.

There may be a chance if some sparin or some thing over there....as ur age is 27 there may be not a big issue of something related to bone....i may be a mascular pain...but i will advise to avoid any excerise even without weight for some around 15 to 20 days..and have these medicines u will feel relief.... I would like to advise to not to take any pain killer because u knw pain killer gives u temporary relief from pain and its block the pain signal from brain so person feels relax and do the movements of that part and in muscular pain or sprain the main treatment is that to give rest to that part otherwise damage will increase over there...so its nly damage that part and problem increases....
Next Steps
1. Trayodasgang guggla 2 tab twice a day 2. lakshadi guggula 2 tab twice a day 3.Mahavaat tab 2 tab twice a day.. 4. Gandha taila for local application.. 5. Tab GH vati 2 tab at night....
Health Tips
And make an habit after ecxerise dont directly take steam first masaage ur body with oil and after 10 mins take steam because if u directly take steam or bath then it will harm u in ur future.... And one thing is that whenever u lift weight always bend ur knee and then nly lift weigh because without bending ur knees the pressure directly comes on ur lower back and in future u will have problems of slip disc n all...so be carefull do exercise on daily basisi but avoid to lift heavy weights.... and one thing in Ayurveda i want to tell u they have mentioned to do excerise half of ur stamina in summer....

Obviously don't do exercises for few days, get a x-ray or MRI spine to know the actual problem. Local application of pain relieving gel or hot oil massage will be good but don't think to do anything immediately.
Next Steps
It will take time to be cured. Take proper nutrition, calcium and vitamin D. Ashwgandha churn, tryodashang gugulu, dashmularisht will help.
