if symptoms are severe and more weakness in whole body and if you intake insufficient diet then your body requirement, there may be chance for anaemia.medicine or drugs or injections you are taking during treatment can cause elevation of liver enzymes.
physical therapy is recommended, your treatment plan could include one or more types of therapy:
like alternating heat and ice, massage, ultrasounds, and electric stimulation
Bracing - ranging from a simple corset to a rigid plastic body jacket
Flexibility and Strength Training - this is achieved through exercises, posture retraining, stretching, etc.
Pool Therapy - unloads spinal pressure because of the decrease in gravity provided by the water
Posture Training - learning how to stand, sit, and move properly; incorrect posture can contribute to back pain
Exercise
Exercise is vital to recovery and to maintaining a healthy spine. Consider it part of long-term health management and risk reduction. Regular exercise is the most basic way to combat back problem
