Low Back Pain....

Seekign for techniques to help alleviate/prevent random back pain, caused by muscle spasms. Every once in a while my low back will start to hurt, over a few days the pain will increase adn make it painful to sit, walk or function. It's not completely crippling, but painful enough with sometimes very slight tingling down my left leg. I've had this on and off over the past few years, but as of recently I've had it constant for the last 2 or so months, with it onyl getting strnoger recently..

Stats: 28 year old male - 6ft 3-4" - average build

I know I should be doing some stretches in the AM and start working out regularly. But I can't get myself motivated to go work out unless I get this back pain issue and then I can't, because my low back hurts....

When I visited my PCP, he advised to take 3-4 Advil tablets, I believe 3x per day - I forgot the details.... Essentially it's supposed to work as an anti-inflamatory to help control the spine inflamtion against the ctc w/ nerve ending...


Any suggestions guys?
