Hey i know this is not a muscle building question but I thought with all he great advise and help i received in the past I will be able to get some help with this. My 50 yrs old step father is starting to have back soreness. Before he took some pain killers and it went away for a couple of weeks. And just the other day he went to left up a box and the pain came back. But this time a lil worst to where it's painful for him to move at this time.

So I'm wondering with all the supplements out there is there anything that would help or aid in this situation? Something that would strengthen whatever muscles or legiments or whatever around the lower back. So that he will not have such problems go in and out. He's not a very active person but is not an obese person as well. So any help or advise you guys can give me would be help. I thank you all in advance and look forward to your responses.

What does his doctor say?
Most supps are designed for building muscle, which won't happen unless there's a workout routine and proper diet involved- While building muscle can definitely help fight lower back pain and injuries, working out can also aggravate an existing condition or invite a new one if done improperly.
