A sharp pinching pain that occurs in the lower back can mean several different things. It could indicate a pinched nerve, a pulled muscle or a torn ligament. It is best to see a doctor to determine the exact cause.

The symptoms suggest it to be compression of a nerve. Usually sciatic nerve under pressure is called sciatica. If it is not unbearable, if the patient is not too old, if the patient is otherwise healthy and if X ray findings do ot suggest a prolapsed disc or do not call for immediate emrgency surgery and if the patient is ready to take his or her responsibility, then yoga [which is actually hatha yoga] can help. Even TV programs or VCDs can be useful if due care is taken. The care suggested is to avoid jerks and undue strain or stretch. Avoiding everyhting that causes pain.

One possibility can be a spinal subluxation that is putting pressure on a nerve and/or causing muscle spasms. If so, the problem can be corrected by a chiropractor.
