Back spasms and pain (back spasm) is a mixed experience of spasms and pain in our back muscles. It causes a sudden sharp pain or discomfort.

Some home remedies can relieve this, such as fomenting with ice or something warm. Sometimes this requires the help of some medicines, massage and stretching. Usually this problem is caused by our bad lifestyle and stress. However, sometimes it can also be a sign of a serious disease or disorder, so it is very important to consult a doctor.
