Detailed Answer:
Hello and welcome to Ask A Doctor,

I have gone through your query,

You seem to be having symptoms suggestive of a musculoskeletal pain. I would suggest you to do the following:

- Take T. ZERODOL P twice daily for 3-5 days or as an when needed.
- Avoid lifting any heavy objects in the near future.
- Place a pillow behind your back while driving.
- Avoid sleeping on a mattress. A wooden cot would be better to correct the posture.
- Maintain an erect posture while sitting or standing or while driving.
- Apply hot fomentation or hot water bag over the lower back to reduce inflammation.

I hope this helps,

Please feel free to discuss further,

Regards
