I have had recurring lower back pain from the sacrum area. I've been to chiropractor and have good results and feel better but out of the blue the pain will come back. What is annoying is I am not doing anything specifically strenuous that would make this happen. For example I got through two recent snow storms on East coast and was fine. This morning I wake up with a little pain and its gotten worse. I've already taken 2 Aleve and 1 muscle relaxer. I sit at work alot (10- 12 hrs/day) but do try to get up every 2 hours and just walk around which helps. I am doing morning stretches before getting out of bed and some general stretches during day (hanRAB on hips and just leaning back).

Does anyone get similiar pain and know of any way to help relieve pain and prevent from coming back. I hate taking any medication especially the muscle relaxers and would like to avoid if I can.

Thanks
 
You may have minor problems with your sacroiliac joint causing this - it's very commo. Look up SIJD for more information.

Ice, rest when hurting, avoiding things which cause more pain, NSAID's, and physical therapy can help in a lot of cases.
