What Is The Sharp Pain In The Lower Back After Laying For A While?

It seems like when I lay completely flat on my back for longer then ten minutes when I try to get up I have a sharp pain in my lower back which causes me to be unable to get up. The pain normally goes away after 10-15 minutes, however, it has lasted up to two hours.

DEAR FRIEND, I UNDERSTAND YOUR CONCERNS ABOUT YOUR PAIN. SEE THIS IS MAY BE DUE TO MUSCLE STRAIN OR NERVE COMPRESSION, SO WE NEED TO TAKE CARE OF BACK... SEE IN THIS TYPE OF CASE PAIN IS THE MAIN FACTOR WHICH TROUBLES HIM DUE TO IRRITATION OF NERVE ROOTS. NO NEED TO WORRY, YOU NEED TO TAKE IFT AND TRACTION THERAPY FOR HIS BACK IN PHYSIOTHERAPY CLINIC... IF ANY LOCALIZE PAIN IS PRESENT THEN TAKE ULTRASONIC THERAPY.... YOU NEED 15 days TO THIS THERAPY!! THEN ONLY START WITH VARIOUS EXERCISE... TILL THAT TIME WAIT FOR PAIN TO REDUCE....
