Suggest Treatment For Lower Back Pain

I am 54 years old, 5 6 and weigh 130 lbs. I ve recently noticed an indention to my right buttock that didn t use to be there. When I saw my GYN doctor, he said to be on the safe side, he wanted me to have a CT scan. There is no pain,bruising, discoloration or recent injuries. However, I have a slight increase in my usual low back pain. What could be the cause and should I get a CT? Could he be thinking, bone loss or cancer?

For pain in the lower back take pain killers 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. If still not improved then go for x-ray or MRI.
