Brief Answer:
Physiotherapy is best method
Detailed Answer:
Hello madam,
Back pain is frustrating problem. There are many new methods which are available but not all are effective. After reading your history I came to conclusion that you have following methods available for you.
1. Physiotherapy- it is the best method for you. Learn back muscle strengthening exercises and do it regularly. Learn back flexion exercises. Avoid bending forward or weight lifting.
2.Take regular calcium and vitamin D3.
3. Vitamin B 12 and Pregabalin tablet after discussing with your doctor.
4. Ozone therapy- it is used for disc problems. In It ozone gas is used for discolysis. since your pain is more due to weak muscles so i do not think it will help you
5. Accupuncture - Some accupuncture specialist can treat such back pain by their technique. It is not effective in all cases but you can try this.
6. Short wave dithermy- Method to provide heat at your back. It can be used for short time
6.TENS- electric current is used to provide muscle stimulation.
I think you can try these methods. They are effective in some cases but not always. They can be combined with physiotherapy.
I hope this answer will help you.Let me know if you want to ask any other question. Thanks and take care.
