In this plan
Purpose, Prevention & Protection
- I know a back strain affects a muscle or tendon in my lower back.
- I avoid heavy lifting or twisting that sharply worsens my pain while I heal.
- I stay gently active as I can; I do not stay in bed for days.
- I ask which pain medicines are safe for me, especially if I have other health problems.
