This could be displaced disc.
Detailed Answer:
Dear Madam,
Thank you for posting your query on HCM.
Well looking into your query I will like to tell you that , sometimes when there is spondylolisthesis the disc gets displaced over one another which you can actually feel like a lump or a discontinuation in smoothness when you feel the spine .In my opinion this could be a possibility .
Take care.

Brief Answer:
Depends on your treating doctors choice.
Detailed Answer:
Dear Madam,
Thank you for reverting back.
Well let us have the diagnosis first and then I can suggest you further . But primarily we try to handle the pain with NSAIDS first then opioids . If they fail Epidural pain block can be given which are quite effective . if there is some nerve compression then surgical options are sorted but its best to avoid them .
