With normal investigation reason of pain can be due to fibrosis. you may benefit from local injection. It may give pain relief for longer time.
For these symptoms analgesic and neurotropic medication like pregabalin can be started consulting your doctor. Till time, avoid lifting weights, Sit with support to back. You can consult physiotherapist for help. Physiotherapy like ultrasound and interferential therapy will give quick relief. I will advise to check your vit B12 and vit D3 level.
Another possibility of fibromyalgia. You can take amitryptiline and duloxetin consulting you’re treating doctor.
