Brief Answer:
Weakness of muscles ,vitamin deficiency and muscular pain are commonest
Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Thanks for your query.
I'm Dr. Sudhir Kumar,
After going through your query I concluded that cause of your back pain can be muscle weakness or trace element deficiencies specially vitamin D and vitamin B 12. Back exercises, neurotropics such as mecobalamine and analgesics such as diclofenac give relief. Serum vitamin D test is advised if it is low than vitamin D supplementation will be required.
Another cause of backache specially in physical workers is muscular pain . Rest and analgesics give relief.Avoid long continuous standing.
You need to do x ray and MRI to rule out other causes.
You can discuss with your treating Doctor about it.
Hope I have answered your query.
If you have any further questions I will be happy to help.
Wishing you good health.
Take care.
