Hello.
Thank you for writing to HCM,
Usually Back pain is due to lack of proper exercise.
Physio would be preferable because it will force you for exercise and due to that your rigid muscles will also be free and you will be relaxed some what.
Its a process which cant give result too quickly but definitely give result.
So I will suggest for physio.
Hope it will helpful to you..
Thanks & Regards,
Dr. Gaurav Prajapati
