What Could Cause Constant Dizziness, Headache And Backache Without Help From Advil?

My 90 years old mother lately she keeps complaining about having dizzy head, heavy head ache, and back ache almost every minute of her day. She keeps asking for pain killer pills and touch or massage from us. I did gvie her advil but it did not help much. Meantime she still could eat well and speak louder and strong? She seems to have the pain she can t not bear with anymore according to her claims. And she wants the helper to keep company with her every minute and keep massaging her back non-stop.
