Brief Answer:
I need little detail of the illness

Detailed Answer:
Hello,
I have studied your case. Pain in back can be due to either nerve compression or lumbar spondylitis. It is usually associated with weak bones. It is not possible to treat it with stem cells. Any way stem cell therapy is on experiment basis and though it has promised so much, there is no result at present.
I would like to know little detail of your illness to suggest you about stem cell therapy.
1.Since when you are having back pain?
2.Do you have any reports with you like X rays and MRI, If yes then you can share them with me.
3.What medications you are taking at present?
Please send me answers of these questions. I will try my best to help you.
thanks
