In a comment to Gazeta.Ru, Galina Chudinskaya, a neurologist at JSC Medicina, emphasized that with severe pain in the back and other limbs, you need to urgently consult a doctor. The specialist notes that with mild pain, non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs will help, as well as wrap the waist with a handkerchief.
The doctor emphasizes that it is necessary to prevent pain – to lift only weights that the body can handle, to exercise regularly. You must sit down before lifting a heavy object. The lower back can be fixed with a corset or a wide belt.
Chudinskaya says that if the pain is not too strong or has been experienced before, non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs such as diclofenac can be used. At the same time, it is worth taking drugs that reduce the secretion of stomach acid to protect against side effects. With pain, dry heat is effective – it allows you to eliminate the muscle-tonic syndrome – so you should wrap your waist with a woolen scarf. You can also fix it with a belt or corset.
The specialist emphasizes that when the pain is accompanied by weakness, numbness in the limbs, you should see a doctor.
