Brief Answer:
Bad posture, weights
Detailed Answer:
Hi XXXX
Thanks for the query
This pain could be due to bad posture, bending forward and lifting weights.
Avoid doing the same. Apply hot packs to the affected region. Do back extension exercises.
Take Tablet Ibuprofen 400mg twice a day after meals and Tablet Rabeprazole twice a day before meals for 5 days. Prescription not required. Apply Volini gel.
If the problem persists after 10 days you can do an Xray of the lumbosacral spine to look for any spine problems.
I hope I have answered your query.
I will be available to answer your follow up queries.
