Continue treatment as advised

Detailed Answer:
Hello,
I have gone through your question and understand your concerns.

The prescription and symptoms are of low back pain mostly secondary to muscular spasm.
You have been advised X-ray of spine and drugs related to back pain.
You should get the X-ray if symptoms persists even after taking medication.

Avoid bending forward, stooping, lifting heavy objects, squatting position.
Is there any weakness in lower limb, urinary complains, sensory loss?

Hope you found the answer helpful.

Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Low back pain with definite weakness on examination by a doctor requires Mri testing as xray will not be able to detect disc prolapse.
What is the weakness?
Any difficulty in holding sleepers, foot drop?
Get examined by a neurologist and if required get an Mri spine lumbosacral region.
Continue medications, physiotherapy and precautions as advised.
