Having Acute Lower Back Pain. Feeling Uncomfortable. On Cypro 500 Mg. Any Alternate Remedy?
I am having acute lower back pain . I can t comfortable sit, stand, walk or lay. The pain is presently concentrated at the tip of my tail bone. I saw a doctor last week and I have been taking cypro 500 mg. I never received complete relief. Yesterday and into today the pain is more acute and sharp to breath taking. I am seeking your recommendation to address this issue Thanks Karen

HELLO Karen,
Thanks for calling us,
First of all tell me whether this Acute LBP develops after lifting any heavy objects or following any sudden jerk.
I advise you for bed rest for some days and avoid forward bending.
You should visit an orthopaedic surgeon for clinical examination of spine and if necessary X-ray spine
will be done.
Meanwhile You can take oral Muscle Relaxant & Pain killers.
Regards.
