Suggest Treatment For Muscle Spasm In The Lower Back

I am having a lower back spasm in the large muscle on my left side that catches every time I move. Tried ice and heat, rest and Tylenol. No strain that I m aware of, only painful when it catches . What else can I do? This has gone on for 3 days now.

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

Muscles spasm can be managed with combination of analgesics and muscle relaxants. You can try Acetaminophen/Baclofen combination which is quite effective and shows good results. Aceclo MR is a good alternative and it is a combination of Aceclofenac and Thiocochicine.

Wishing you good health.

Thanks.
