Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I started having lower back pain after my sons track meet. It was cold outside and I stood for about 5 hours. Since then, whenever I bend over, my back just kills me. I ve been putting heat on it and taking Motrin. It helps a little but it still hurts. Any idea what is causing the pain?
For back pain you have to take some pain killer like tab akilos-p or tab ultracet after meals along with tab shalcal 500 mg or tab toscal-gem once daily preferably in afternoon with tab rantac or cap omez empty stomch at-least one hour before any meal. As you are an active female I suggest you to take pain killer not on regular basis but only when your back pain is unbearable or disturbing your daily work. You can also use volidup gel or powergesic-plus gel for local application. Apart from these you can also go for some physiotherapy exercises after an expert opinion of physiotherapist. Also you have to sleep on a plain surface because it is a good practice in case of back pain.
