Needless to say I don't bind but I have pulled back muscles and once injured they hurt like the blazes and are very slow to heal because often you find yourself using the muscle slowing the healing process. If you pulled a back muscle, expect a month or two before it's back to normal. Try to avoid any activity that causes you to feel the pain until the muscle has recovered. They have back support garments that might offer some help depending on which muscles you pulled and the male cut garments could provide some binding effect.
