Brief Answer:
just rule out arthritis
Detailed Answer:
Hi
Back pain is mostly due to muscle spasm, but if it remains for a long time one must exclude other causes like arthritis etc. I advice you to go for an ESR and CRP blood test and X ray of LS spine and pelvis
Meanwhile, you can try over the counter pain killer and hot water fomentation
There is no need to go for rest, I advice to stay active but avoid lifting weights and heavy exercises
hope this will help
take care

Brief Answer:
no
Detailed Answer:
Hi
this is really unfortunate that every problem is related to either vitamin D or vitamin B deficiency
I donot think that this is due to any deficiency. do exercise, go for few blood test I advised and can try Naprosyn 500 mg twice daily after meal.
probably you need a rheumatological opinion and physiotherapy too.
