HI
Well come to HCM
This could be due to spinal condition there must be some disc degenerative disease and this need to be ruled out, till then you can try some NSAID (Non-steroid Anti-inflammatory drug) and best option would be "Tab Diclofenac 50 mg once in day" have bed rest, hope this information helps, take care.
