Detailed Answer:
Hi XXXX,
Thanks for being on healthcaremagic.com.
I am Dr.Ajay Panwar,a neurologist,here to answer your query.

If you would have presented to me as an outpatient,I would have asked you a few questions,in order to answer your query well-
1)Is the pain posture related?(That means does it increase on bending forwards or sitting for a long time?Please tell,what all positions increase it and what positions relieve it)?
2)Is the pain static,increased or decreased over past 2 days?
5)Any history of tingling or numbness in arms or legs?
3)Any history of fall or injury?
4)Any past medical history?

It may be musculoskeletal or related to spine,which I shall be able to tell you better,after you follow up with the above details.

Meanwhile,please take non steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs like naproxen 500 or etoricoxib 60, on sos basis(ie,only at the time of severe pain).PLEASE TAKE MEDICINES UNDER A PHYSICIAN'S GUIDANCE ONLY.

Please follow-up with details.

Brief Answer:
Musculoskeletal pain.will improve soon.

Detailed Answer:
Hi XXXX,
Thanks for being in follow-up and providing answers to the specific questions.

You have to think about postural effects,indicate that no significant postural variation in pain.
Its static means nothing serious.

Likely,it is non-specific musculoskeletal back pain.Don't panic.It will improve soon.
Meanwhile,continue the medications as discussed.

However,please get back to me if it does not improve or it worsens in coming days.

Hope I have answered your query.If you have any further questions,I shall be glad to answer else,please close the thread-rate it and write a review as your rating will be of help to me.
