Low-back pain can be a challenge to diagnose or treat. What’s more, your treatment options vary depending on the type of pain you’re experiencing. For acute pain that hits you suddenly and disappears just as quickly, your doctor may recommend acetaminophen or aspirin. For chronic or persistent pain, your doctor might advise hot or cold packs for short-term relief. Additional options may include alternative treatments, such as acupuncture or yoga. Numbness, tingling or severe pain that doesn’t go away after you finish a recommended course of medicine are all signs that point to seeing your doctor right away.
