Hi Thank you for asking HCM I have gone through your query.Your problem is most likely due to lumbar disc herniation.A physical examination with an Orthopedician will give clue for that and an X ray followed by MRI if needed should be done to confirm that.For my patients with such condition i advise muscle relaxants like Thiocolchicoside NSAIDs like Aceclofenac and neurotropic drugs.I send them to physiotherapy along with this.Wearing a supporting belt is also helpful.If no improvement after this then a surgical correction can be considered.Hope this may help you. Let me know if you have any further query.
