Suggest Treatment For Severe Back Pain

I have had pain in my back for a very long time, after going to get multiple remedial massages we have managed to locate the original problem to be either my lumbar spine or hips. Today I had an X-Ray that showed clearly that one of my hips is sitting higher than the other and I can see my spine is not 100% straight but isn t obviously curved. What does this mean?

Hi While you may have mild scoliosis of the spine--a curving--you need an MRI scan to check for a ruptured disk in your lower back
