    Lower back is throbbing and can barely move
    Yesterday my back suddenly started hurting and after that I have been barely able to move without crying with pain. It starts to throb and feels like my back has its own heartbeat at times, how can I make the pain go away?

    I never assumed it would be bad enough to see a doctor? I mean I don't want to waste their time

    If you are in misery... you aren't wasting their time. Seriously.

    Because there are other things that can manifest themselves as a lower back pain... like kidney issues... and certain other things...

    You can try to soak in a hot bath with some Epsom salts for tonight... but if it continues tomorrow see a doctor... just in case.

    The doctor is your best bet. Speaking as someone that's had chronic back issues since a car accident over 17 years ago, most over the counter drugs don't do a thing. Not only that, but Smoothy is right, there are many things that can cause back pain.

    I often take robaxacit (sp?) when I have back pain, but that's just so that I get a tiny bit of relief until I can see my doctor.
