Orthopaedic Surgeon 's  Response
Hello, Thanks for your query. After going through your query I came to know that you are suffering from chronic backache. It may be due to weakness of muscles and bone and vitamin and trace element deficiencies specially vitamin D and vitamine B 12. Your old pott'disease made your back slightly weak. Back exercises, Cartisafe D once daily, NUROKIND GOLD ONCE DAILY and analgesics (DICLOFENAC 100 MG SLOW RELEASE TABLETS) give relief. Sometimes vitamin D deficiency can aggravate this so serum vitamin D test is advised if it is low than vitamin D supplementation will be required. Avoid long continuous standing. Sit in a straight posture. Eat milk, fruits and green leafy vegetables daily. You need to done MRI TO RULE OUT other causes. You can discuss with your treating Doctor about it. I do hope that you have found something helpful and I will be glad to answer any further query. Take care.
