Hello
Thank You for getting back with the answers. I have gone through them. In my opinion your symptoms are because of old trauma to spine. There is a possibility that there is nerve compression which is causing recurrent pains. I would suggest you to get MRI- Whole spine done to check the status of cord & exiting nerves. Hopefully it will pin point the exact cause of pain. Apart from that try following measures:
- get a baseline ECG done to confirm the status of heart.
- Visit a Physiotherapist. He will advise some exercises that will help in relieving the stress.
- Ask some family member to massage back with oil.
- Take hot water in a rubber bottle and place it at the site of pain. It will give soothing effect.
Hope I have answered your query. If you have any further questions I will be happy to help if not then don't forget to close the discussion and rate it.
Wishing you good health !!
