How To Cure Lower Back Pain ?
Hi,
I have been having lower back pain for about 3 weeks. I have been having mild right hip and right knee pain and stiffness for the same amount of time. When I push on my stomach around, and especially just below my belly button, it feels like a small ball and hurts my back a lot

firstly get an X-rays done for your back spine and do visit doctor
if you are heavy reduce weight since you didnt mentioned your age its difficult to diagnose whether its a degeneration case or any other injury. till then you can do hot fomentation for your back and ice therapy for knee for 10-15 mins .do not lift heavy weights and no forward bending.
use good knee while climbing stairs and bad knee while getting down from stairs
