What Causes Lower Back Pain While Standing Completely Upright?
Hello. I have two problems. One is regarding my low back. I feel pain there but only when I stand completely upright. I had a similar problem a few years ago and every time I do some heavy lifting or bending I can feel the same pain.
Another problem is concerning my skin. The skinn on my inner thighs is extremely dry and full of cracks and although I put a lot of body lotion a few times a day, it's not getting better. I don't know if it because of the cold and dry weather or hard water or even the fact that I wear a lot of clothes.
Dear patient As per your description you are having mechanical back pain. This is caused by back instability or minor fracture.i would advise Xray of lumbosacral spine anteroposterior and lateral views to confirm diagnosis. Visit radiology center nearby you and get it done. If it's normal start back strengthening and back extension excersise from reputed physiotherapy center. If it's abnormal you need to consult expert spine surgeon with report. For your skin problem you need to consult skin specialist.
