I contacted ortho doctor and he advised that it is nothing but muscle pain and I should live a tension free life which will help. he also gave me some muscle relxtants but did not help. Pain is in the centre of buttocks and it spreads to buttoks are also. Please suggest some remedey. Sunita

1. since your low back [L4/L5] supports most of your body weight thus is the most common area affected in LBA [low back ache]
PS. since the symptoms again came back after taking conservative treatment, thus check with X-ray LS-spine, MRI for any nerve impingement or narrowing
2. even if you dislike going to see doctors, make sure to have conducted all the relevant examination and investigations [either prolapsed intervertebral disc or if there is pressure on the nerves], prior to surgical or conservative [second opinion] line of treatment, thus Ayurveda approach to your disease will be guided as under:

i. Avoid: urad dal, curd, fish, jaggery, milk, incompatible and heavy food, suppression of natural urges, anxiety, grief, outdoor activities when sky is covered with clouds, and cold wind.

iii. fry 250 ml ginger juice in 250 ml of til tail, when 250 ml remains [make sure oil doesn't get burn], filter it after cooling and massage.
iv. boil 1 spoon dried ginger in 4 cups of water till 1 cup remains, filter it and add 2 spoon castor oil and drink.

PS. General Instructions
i. Maintain straight back posture while sitting or standing.
ii. avoid bending forwards and lifting weights.
iii. sleep on hard mattress.
