Lower Back Pain Treatments

OTC Drugs

Some NSAIDs such as Aleve, Motrin, Advil, or aspirin would be helpful solutions for your lower back pain in the long run. They can reduce pain and inflammation immediately in a few hours. For chronic conditions, OTC painkillers like Tylenol would change the way the brain receives pain signals. However, keep in mind that many drugs would be harmful to your kidneys and stomach if consumed for an extended period or large doses. Thus, read the labels carefully and be cautious. [7]
