   pulled muscle (Open to All Health Related Topics board)

21st January 2007
[QUOTE=LizE4;2754324]recently i pulled a muscle in my back and was wondering if anyone knows how long it will take to heal, and what is good for the pain?

If you sprained the muscle within the last 3 days or so, try to apply ice to the area. After the first few days, you can try to apply some heat to the site. You can also try an OTC NSAID, such as ibuprofen or naproxen. If you don't get relief within a few days, it's best to see a physician.
