Brief Answer:
You need to investigate further

Detailed Answer:
Hello,

I have gone through your query.
Due to compression of nerve root in spinal canal there can be pain in your back and burning sensation.

I will advise you to do MRI spine to see for any disc bulge leading to nerve compression.

For these symptoms analgesic and neurotropic like pregabalin medication can be started.
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 vascular occlusion which can be confirmed by colour Doppler examination.Bruising can be due to vascular abnormality.

Hope this answers your query. If you have additional questions or follow up queries then please do not hesitate in writing to us. I will be happy to answer your queries.

Wishing you good health.

Take care.
