Hi
Hope this message finds you in good health.
I have gone through your query in detail and understand your concern.

She may be suffering from lumbar spondylosis.
Considering her age,she must be having osteoporosis,leading to degenerative disc disease of the lumbar spine.

Get her MRI of the lumbar spine done.
Physiotherapy,yoga and using a lumbar brace would be helpful.

Consult a orthopedist.

I hope the answer was useful.


Get back to me for any FOLLOW UP QUERIES anytime.
