As you have not mentioned your age it is very difficult to plan the treatment because age is very important determinant as far as back pain is concerned. But from your narrative I think you are an elderly person so you just have to take some pain killer with muscle relaxants like tab dan-mr or tab osteonac-th twice daily after meals when your back pain is worse enough to disturb your work along with tab shalcal 500 mg or tab toscal-gem once daily after meals with tab rantac or tab famotid twice daily empty stomach. You can also use volidup gel or powergesic-plus gel for local application. It is also quite beneficial in relieving back pain and provide you some comfort. Apart from these you can also go for physiotherapy exercises after an expert opinion of physiotherapist. Also you have to sleep on plain surface because it is a good practice in case of back pain.
