Want to answer more questions in the Health & Fitness category?
Maybe give some free advice about: Injuries?
take advil/tylenol to help try and reduce the pain.. also use a heating pad, i heard it wokrs!! o and tell your parents so you wont have to shovel for a while also they might have some suggestsions

dont shovel..... anymore!
]
just take it easy. take a nice hot bath. and then cut down on the shoveling.

Try using a heating pad or a muscle-pain relieving cream, particularly at night.
If the problem doesn't fix itself in a week, go see a doctor.

Go to the doctor, or ask your parents for help. You may have scoliosis, or something! You might have a brace, but trust me you can feel it, but it doesn't show.

u could get an icey hot stick

first, tell your parents that it hurts and see if they have any ideas on what you should do, then put ice on it for a day and then the next day lay on a heating pad...you probley just pulled a muscle in it...but if it dosent get beeter soon i would go to the doctor.

Hey,
try some muscle rubs such as nurofen or radian, and try to relax it as much as possible - don't hold it stiff!
If you have acess to an infra red lamp (they are only about £9.99 to buy from Boots, Supadrug, any kind of big chemist store) that would probably really help too!
I hope it gets better soon!
Blessed Be,

Try icing the soar spot. A bag of frozen peas works great because it can form around any spot on your body, and much cheaper then buying an ice pack. Leave the ice on for only 10 minutes at a time. Icing too long can damage muscles.

something like that happen to my gym teacher! you need to go to the doctor, ER, hospitial to check it out!

I hate it when that happens to me too. To help get rid of the pain, you can use IcyHot (the cream that heats up and soothes the pain), you can take Advil, Tylenol, or Alieve. Also, if you take a hot bath and then rest, it will help. Hope I helped :)

o the same thing happened to me wen i woke up today! I think what you should do is just rest today and maybe put a hotwater bottle on it, or ice..try and take some tylenol or advil too, feel better!

Best advice i have is to use robaxin(sp) it helps im a mover and use it the odd time and it helps.

Take a long hot bath with some deep heat/ralgex bath oil in.
This will relax the muscles a bit.
If it is really hurting then take a couple of Nurofen or other NSAID (Non-Steroid Anit-Inflammatory Drugs) These are great for muscular pain, and rub on some deep-heat cream (Not sure whether you get this as I'm not sure where in the world you are!! It's the heating cream you can get over the counter from any good chemist)
Chances are you have just overdone it shovelling but if it's not better in 48-72 hours then I would be inclined to see a Doctor!!
Til then get your feet up and relax!!!
Take Care and hope it get's better soon!!

After shoveling yesterday my back and next hurt too. Use a heating pad. Or put cream on it. If you can a back masuace (no idea how to spell it). Try doing yoga or meditating. We meditate in school sometimes at first it hurts your back but then it feels really good. I hope I helped! ♥ good luck
