The lower back pain and discomfort you are experiencing after a sports incident are most commonly due to an acute lumbar muscle strain or a ligament sprain caused by sudden twisting, overextension, or impact.
Next Steps
Since the injury occurred 6 days ago, you can alternate between cold and warm therapy. Use an ice pack (wrapped in a towel) for 15 minutes if you feel acute inflammation, or a heating pad for 15â20 minutes to relax tight, spasming muscles before gentle movement.
Health Tips
Schedule a Physiotherapy Consultation for detailed evaluation

The lower back pain may be due to a muscle strain, ligament sprain, or soft tissue injury sustained while playing. A detailed assessment is needed to determine the exact cause and severity. If the pain is severe, radiates to the leg, or is associated with numbness or weakness, seek medical evaluation promptly.
Next Steps
Avoid strenuous activities and sports for a few days.
Apply ice packs for 15 to 20 minutes, 3 to 4 times daily during the first 48 hours.
Maintain gentle movements and avoid prolonged bed rest.
Consult a physiotherapist for a physical examination.
Health Tips
Avoid heavy lifting, bending, and twisting movements.
Maintain proper sitting and sleeping posture.
Begin back-strengthening and stretching exercises only after the acute pain subsides and under professional guidance.
Seek immediate medical attention if you experience leg weakness, numbness, loss of bladder/bowel control, or worsening pain.
