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?

    That’s tricky because lower back pain can be due to many things.

    If it’s related to muscle tenseness, have you tried stretching? Dynamic side stretches first to warm the area up, then more sustained holds. I find a combination of side stretches, sustained cobra pose, child’s pose, some squats and that hamstring stretch one does while lying down can help.
