On saturday afternoon, while lifting lpg cylinder to change at home, I hurted my back badly, instantly lower back pain started with a lot of stiffness. Now there is a lot of constant pain and stiffness even after 2 days. It's only when I apply moov and tiger balm that the pain gets reduced for 2-3 hours. Age: 42 years (male ). Kindly suggest that whether I should wait for another day for the pain to resolve on its own or should I get it checked immediately.
