It must b a disc prolapse or some muscular sprain. Is that pain radiating to the lower limbs n associated with numbness in the lower limb? A muscle relaxant like tb. myoril will b excellent relief of associated with strict bed rest of two to three weeks. Ask mom to rest n give her the muscle relaxant
