You need proper clinical examination and investigations. Back pain may be due to many reasons like unaccustomed exercise,disc prolapse,vitamin D,calcium deficiency,hypothyroidism etc. Investigations include routine hemogram,RBS,LFT,RFT,urine RE/ME,serum calcium and vitamin D level,TSH estimation,ultrasound of abdomen,X-ray L/S spine AP/Lateral view,urine RE/ME. Further investigations MRI L/S spine can be done if needed.
At present,you should take rest,analgesics and muscle relaxants. Proper treatment depend upon the findings.
Get well soon. Take Care Dr.Indu Bhushan
