Orthopaedic Surgeon,  's  Response
Dear patient Pain in left side felt throughout the day is most likely muscular pain. Since it is for 3 months Bony pathology also needs to be ruled out.I would like to advise xray of lumbo sacral spine anteroposterior and lateral views. please get it done from radiology centre nearby you. meanwhile start tab myoril 4 mg twice a day with tab ultracet twice a day for 5 days. If xray report is abnormal please consult orthopaedic surgeon nearby your area. Avoid forward bending and weight lifting.
