Suggest Remedy For Lower Back Pain
I have had severe low back pain only when lying down at night, which radiates to hips and pelvic areamam. It starts about 2-4 hours after I lay down, then I can t bend at the waist for about 15 minutes, then have to sleep sitting in a chair. This has been going on for 3 months. I had x-rays and MRI of lumbosacral which showed 3 minimally herniated disks, L3-4, L4-5, L5-S1. Dr. says that shouldn t be causing so much pain.

For lower back pain take some pain killer like biozobid-plus or combiflam only when the pain is worse enough or disturb your daily routine along with calcium supplements like shalcal or toscal-gem once daily. I also advice you to sleep on plain surface. Do some kind physiotherapy exercises after an expert opinion of physiotherapist.
