Hello,

There is nothing to be depressed about. Such symptoms can be due to dehydration of disc or bone weakness. These are reversible at your age. You should do following to have relief in this:
- Take a mild analgesic like acetaminophen for relief.
- Apply a local analgesic ointment and do warm water fomentation with water bag, at least 3 times a day.
- Start doing some muscle strengthening exercises. Yoga will be very helpful for you.
- Take calcium supplements.

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

Regards,
