Conversation: The conversation between human and AI assistant.
[|Human|] I lifted 2 bags of 40 lb H2O softener salt by their handle (one in each hand); I immediately felt and heard a popping sound in my low back (1st the left, then the right). Moments later, felt and heard popping in my neck. No pain, just tightness in those areas. I am 57 yrs female.
[|AI|]  Hi, In my opinion i don't think you should worry unless pain persists or increases I think it is just a kind of muscular spasm due to overusing or overstretching your muscle origins. It is revealed by cold compresses for the first 48 hrs with physiotherapy and massages with topical gels containing muscle relaxants and NSAIDs, painkiller like Advil, bed rest and relax and avoid overusing these muscles again will be effective otherwise I suggest MRI and CT on cervical vertebrae to exclude minor fissures or nerve compression due to neurovascular herniation.
