Suggest Treatment For Pain In Mid Lower Back

For the past few months, I've been experiencing pain. It wakes me up in the early morning usually around 3 or 4. It's very painful on my mid-lower back. Recently, it has also started to be painful in the front around my lower rib area. It doesn't hurt on only one side, but both. This time it has also made me sick to my stomach as well.
I've been to the doctor several times. They've told me it is rapid muscle pain. I've also had some x-rays of my spine, which came back fine.
I'm a 30 yr. old female. Any help would be appreciated.

the back pain which cause awakening at early morning could be due to early infection at spinal vertebras.In initial stages it could not be visible on plain x rays for months. for this you should get an MRI of spine , complete blood count AND erythtocyte sedimentation rate (ESR). MRI can detect initial stages of infection and blood count & ESR will make diagnosis confirm.
For this you need expert's guidance by rehab specialist, physical therapist and an Orthopedic surgeon.

Hope this helps.
