Non-prescription: heating pad and an epsom salts bath?

I am sorry she is hurting, I know back pain can be excruciating.

On the topic of baths, a swim wouldn't hurt. Go float in a pool for a while to take the pressure off the muscles

Just an update. She was prescribed a muscle relaxant. It did nothing. She finally went back to urgent care last night. She has at least one compression fracture in her back, but they are thinking there may be two more. She goes for a MRI some time today to see exactly what is going on.

My sister called this one. Mom has osteoprosis, and when this first happened my sister told me she was worried mom had done something more than pull a muscle.

MG,

I hope she will heal and feel better soon! I hate when these Drs make a rash call with out checking things better!
