Hello,
As per your history, it may be due to muscle sprain.
For that you can take tablet acetaminophen.
Apply diclofenac gel or ointment locally.
Heating pads also helps.
Do regular physical therapy.
In case of not getting relief you may require MRI back after orthopedician consultation.
Avoid forward bending.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
