If it is a discomfort rather than pain, it may resolve in a week or so. The more severe it is, the longer it will take. If you are having muscle spasmsâthat is, instances of sharp pain and tight musclesâit may take longer. Generally, most low back pain caused by a strain or soft-tissue injury resolves in 3 to 6 weeks.
