[|Human|] My chiropactor says I should try sarapin in my lower back after treating me 3 times a week for 4 weeks. My back feels much better but she seems to think that the shots will ease the muscles in my lower back. are they necessary? Also, she recommends them in my shoulder area.
[|AI|]  Sharp lower back pain can be due to a couple of region. It can be due to soft tissue weakness or inflammation, it can be related to spinal issue or disc problem, it can be due to nerve compression at back. In your explanation you have also informed that now its becoming better. So if its becoming better I suggest no need of any strain shot. As well, I suggest to use hot and cold pack alternately for relaxing your soft tissues further. Here I suggest also take advice on postural correction and spinal exercises and do follow it for prevention of back pain in the future. In case if you still get pain then understand one thing pain is protective mechanism of our body. When pain comes its alarm there is something wrong. So I suggest instead of treating pain as a symptom do find out the cause of pain and treat the cause first and then the symptom. Your problem does not look major as per your explanation so will get over soon. But any time if it becomes more than visit or tho or physio doctor to know the cause of pain and take treatment according to it. Here again treatment will be either surgical for major damage (problems) or conservative with physiotherapy and medication for mild to moderate issues. Take care.
