Again, ice application is limited to one hour only. You can rest for thirty minutes before you start applying ice again.

Although the relief may only be temporary, a good massage will also help to reduce your stress. You can find a good masseuse at most local malls; talk with them about your pain to see what action can be taken to find relief. If your back pains are caused by a medical condition, then it is suggested that you ask for advice from your doctors first.
