What Causes Pain In Lower Back?

I was fine this morning, but after I took off myboots at work, I was unable to stand up straight due to sharp shooting pains in lower back. Now 4 hours later, Im still hurting and only able to walk completely hunched over. Pain is not bad, just annyoing when Im sitting. Took 800mg ibproufen 4hrs ago....nothing seemed any better

Hi,
From history it seems that you got muscle catch while removing your shoes and producing muscle spas.
Along with ibuprofen take some muscle relaxant medicine as well.
This will give you relief by relieving spasm of muscle.
Apply some muscle relaxant cream locally.
Ok and take care.
