How Can Pain In The Mid Back Be Treated?

Lumbosacral strain
Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Thank you for posting the question.
I have gone through your medical history in detail.
From the symptoms,it seems that you may have suffered a lumbosacral strain due to which,you are experiencing back pain.This causes inflammation and spasm of the paraspinal muscles causing restricted and painful spine movements.
I would suggest you to take rest,apply local analgesic spray / ointment followed by hot fomentation.
Avoid bending forward or lifting anything heavy.
Take analgesic muscle relaxant tablets like tramadol / paracetamol / thiocolchicoside or tizanidine.
Using a lumbar corset around the painful area may be helpful.
If you do not feel better by these measures,you can consider consulting an orthopaedic surgeon for further evaluation and an MRI.
I hope the answer was useful.
Feel free to ask me any follow up queries that you may have.
Thank you.
Kind regards.
