Hello and welcome.
The AKT-4 kit contains of anti-tubercular drugs which help in the treatment of tuberculosis. They do not directly help in treating the back pain or other symptoms, but certainly help in treating the infection. So the answer to your query would rightfully be to find out whether or not the back pain is related to TB, and if it is, then the pain should subside and completely disappear only once the infection has been accurately and effectively treated.
Hope this helps.
Best wishes.
