If so, what would recommend i do as far as treatment goes. thank you
Yes, maybe a muscle strain. You said pain while bending, we have to rule out sciatica. Consult your doctor. You can try this medicine. Tab.Myospas D 1 bid after food.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
Regards,
Dr C.ELANCHEZHIAN, General & Family Physician
