Hello,
I read carefully your query and understand your concern.
The symptoms seem to be related to anklosing spondylitis.
I suggest using anti inflammatory medications such as Acetaminophen to relieve the symptoms.
Cold compresses can be applied locally for pain relief.
Hope my answer was helpful.
If you have further queries feel free to contact me again.
Kind regards!
