Hi,
Spinal disc problems should be ruled out. Posture correction and mild stretching exercises should be done. Avoid sitting in the same posture for long hours. X-ray or MRI spine is required to rule out any bony abnormalities. Vitamin D deficiency should also be ruled out. Balanced diet and physical exercise is essential.
Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
