If you have had constant severe pain in your lumbar region ever since lifting a refrigerator but your Xrays look fine what could be wrong?

Answer 1

perhaps it is muscle spasms.

I hurt my back 2 or 3 years ago lifting something - and it wasn't even anything heavy; I must have twisted wrong when I bent over. It hurt so bad I couldn't even sit up let alone stand. I was taken to the local er and given muscle relaxants.

I'd never had back problems before and my back has never been right since.

It's not nearly that bad now, but it still hurts all of the time and occasionally gets VERY painful. Only muscle relaxants help when it gets too bad.

I had lower lumber spine pain. I had x rays done twice and nothing came up but, i had an MRI after that and it showed that i had a blown disc.IF you have not had one I would ask your doctor about it.

I bought Robin McKenzie's "Treat Your Own Back" book and it has absolutely helped alleviate my lower Back pain.
