Suggest Treatment For Back Pain With Bruised Feeling

I have been having lower back pain that comes and goes. It feels bruised when I touch it, but there isn t anything visibly. I have not had any trauma. 5 feet 6 inches, 160 lbs and moderately active. I work in the dental field and am on my feet slot at work. I gave birth to twins via cesarean 16 months ago and have noticed an increase in intermittent back pain since.

Orthopaedic Surgeon,  's  Response
Dear patient
Intermittent back pain for last one year and not relieved with drugs may be due to mechanical back ache and may be due to instability. This needs to be investigated with Xray of lumbosacral spine anteroposterior and lateral views to rule out bony abnormalities. MRI of lumbosacral spine anteroposterior and lateral views is also required as it gives detail information about disc and nerves and even bones. Visit radiology center nearby you and get it done. You need to consult expert orthopaedic surgeon with report. Meanwhile start tab diclofenac plus thiocolchicoside combination twice a day for pain relief. All the best.
