Mine is intermittent rather than chronic, but I've found that using an electric heating pad every single day for a couple hours makes an enormous difference in how much pain I feel tomorrow. If I skip it, I hurt.

Yeah, I suggest heating pad and muscle relaxers. Once pain calms down stretching lower back muscles and core strengthening takes pressure off your back. I did this and haven't had back pain in 10 years.

Sorry, that is a hard one. I have both MS and orthopedic back issues. My pain ended up being minor orthopedic (lateral lumbar stenosis) and mostly lower back fascia from both conditions and MS hug. Baclofen really helps, heat pad is great, stretching (slow, no bounce, long hold) helps and WATER, lots of water! Good luck!

Have you tried special back stretching or exercises? It may help.

These are good suggestions listed above. And may I add - Tramadol 50 mg. gets me through a work day here in the US without side effects, and it is cheap. I am not sure if it available in the UK, but you could ask. I hope you feel better. Back pain is the worst!
