How should lumbar muscle strain be treated?
Patients with lumbar muscle strain mainly suffer from damage to the lumbar muscles due to long-term involvement in heavy physical activity, poor posture, and chronic strain, resulting in symptoms of pain and limited mobility in the lumbar region. If treatment is needed for lumbar muscle strain, it is first important to rest and develop correct habits for using the lumbar region, avoiding prolonged heavy physical activity. Treatment can also include the use of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory and analgesic drugs in combination with hot compresses, physical therapy, massage, or local blockades. These methods can play a positive role in improving the symptoms of lumbar muscle strain and promoting recovery. Generally speaking, with rest combined with medication and other methods, symptoms can be effectively improved in about two to three weeks (the use of medication should be under the guidance of a physician).
