Dear patient
It seems you have got disc prolapse due to weight lifting which leads to nerve compression and back pain. You need to be investigated with mri of lumbosacral spine with screening of whole spine to confirm diagnosis. Avoid lifting heavy weight suddenly. Take tab diclofenac plus thiocolchicoside combination twice a day for pain relief. Visit expert spine surgeon with report.
