Hi
Thank you for asking HCM.
I have gone through your query. His problem can be due to problems with spine like intervertebral disc dessication or disc herniation. Pain medications like meftal shouldn't be taken for long term as it can cause gastric ulcers or kidney damage. He should better get a physical examination by an orthopedician to rule out the condition. Muscle strengthening exercises, physiotherapy and short term analgesics as well as muscle relaxants will be helpful. B 12 vitamin supplements is good to take also.
Hope this may help you. Let me know if anything not clear.
Thanks.
