Suggest Treatment For Severe Lower Back Pain In An Elderly Person

back pain can be from spine
Detailed Answer:
hi,
Back pain in lower back on rt side can be from spine and para-spinal muscles. If the pain increases on movement kike turning in bed or bending down then that is from muscles and bone. in that case physiotherapy, xray of spine to rule out and wedging, fracture or dislocation, may need mri of spine.
in case of prostate cancer- concern is of recurrence and for that we need a resent PSA and if high suspicion then a Tc bone scan ( Nuclear medicine).
Ultrasound of abdomen is a fair screening test to rule out any illness in internal organs like kidney, pancreas, liver.
so with this fresh information try to find out the cause.
if any other inputs feel free to ask again
best wishes
