My lower back has been absolutely killing me today. Does anyone know of any remedies I could try to address it? I’m trying an ice pack and fixing my sitting posture right now, will be sleeping on my side to relieve pressure on it tonight, but is there anything else I could attempt?

    I’ve been a fellow sufferer of lower back pain myself.
    Try this.

    A back doctor taught me the technique, but I found this YouTube channel that has the same style of stretching.

    EDIT: Also, I think you’re supposed to apply heat, not cold, to a muscle spasm.
    Try applying heat for five-ten minutes, then lay on the floor and do the stretch.
