How Can Chronic Backache Due To Osteoporosis Be Treated?

Hi Doc, my mom is 78 years old and she has chronic Osteoporosis back Pain. She cannot bend forward even for a few seconds. It has been over 15 years since she has this pain. She only gets some relief when she uses a back-pillow and sits down. She has constipation problem as well. She is allergic to penicillin. Is there any treatment?

Hi,

You can consult an orthopedics and get an MRI scan to assess the extent and location of the disease. As of now she can take drugs like Tramadol for pain relief.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
