Hi,I am Dr. Gopal Goel (Orthopaedic Surgeon). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I have lower back pain that seems to have come from no where. I don t think i should have done anything to have caused my pain. It feels stiff and i can feel a little bulge where the majority of my pain consists but touching it doesn t hurt ,only the area. Icyhot patches seem to calm the pain but it wont take away my stiffness. This has already happened 3x and i think it has past and it comes back out of no where.
I have understood your concern, as you mentioned your pain is recurrent in nature and this indicate that your muscles are weak not enough to provide proper strengthen to spinal segments and main thing is your siting and laying posture may give rise to chronic long term recurrent pain. you need to correct the posture. bulge may due disc impingement at spinal level. patches may give you pain relief but temporary. so my suggestion is to relive pain and stiffness at spinal vertebral level, you have to take physiotherapy treatment in form of IFT modalities and ultrasound treatment for localized tenderness is very useful. only physical therapy can cure problems permanently, need to take strengthening exercises with physical therapist learn many exercises which helps to give stability at spinal column. I hope you have satisfied with the answer.
