Brief Answer: Description below Detailed Answer: Hello, Thanks for your query. You might be suffering from Acute mechanical back pain. 1. Hard bed rest for 2-3 days 2. Take some muscle relaxants like myoril 8 mg, etc., along with pain killers like diclofenac 50mg. You can continue using volini spray. 3. Hot water fomentation to back 2-3 times a day 4. Physiotherapy - Interferential therapy (IFT) to your back will help you relieve the pain 5. Avoid driving, leaning forward, sitting for prolonged time or lifting heavy weights.
