Backbone Pain, Diabetes, High Blood Pressure. Used D.F.O Gel. Are They All Related?

Dear doctor I am 49 years old.Iam suffering from back bone pain from about a month.
I am also suffering from diabetes and high blood pressure.When i asked my doctor whether my back bone pain is related to diabetes or high BP then he dissapproved of that and prescribed me to use D.F.O. Gel.
Does my back pain have some relation with diabetes. Please suggest.

Hello
As stated your problem about the back bone pain.
Directly it is not associated with diabetes.
it is the problem of bone that may be due to weakness of bone (osteoporosis) , this is very common in old age.
Go for the X-ray investigation rule out the osteoporosis or any disc prolapse.
Sitting position during work can be modified by the consultation of a doctor.
LS Spinal belt can also be used
ok
take care
