Suggest Treatment For Back Pain Appearing Intermittently

Hello,

I have been having back pain intermittently for the past 5 months. My symptoms include pain in my lower back when lowering my head or trying to touch my toes. I am in my late 30's, exercising my muscle strength training, some cardio, and limited stretching. I do primarily desk-work, without much physical labor. I would appreciate if you might be able to tell me if this could be as simple as a muscle strain, or if I need to pursue further evaluation? Thank you.

Hello,

I had gone through the case and found that it might be due to lumbar spondylosis or slip disc.

So go for MRI of lower vertebrae and avoid forward bending and Vitamin D3 blood test.

Meanwhile take painkiller and Vitamin D3 once a week. Take calcium and protein rich diet.

Hope my answer will be effective for you.

Thanks
