What Is The Permanent Solution For Constant Lower Back Pain?

I have been having constant lower back pain for over 6mnths or more. I have pain in the top of my buttocks and comes around to the top of my thighs, pain also goes down my left leg but not all the time. Looking at my lower back it looks like their is like a hump their and very tender to touch. I have been told that I have O/A in my facet Joints. I have also been to a chiropractor and was told that I have strained the sacrioliac Joints. I didnt get any relief from having 6 sessions. I am unable to bend down, and I am struggling to walk properly and having a problem with getting in and out of the car, I have to lift my right leg up to get into the seat properly which is very painful.My GP has now referred me to see a Specialist, time frame to see anybody is 2mths. This pain is getting me down considerably. As soon as I get up in the morning Im in so much discomfort. I have been using cold and ice packs to see if it will help, and I am taking coedine. Im getting no relief from either. I am lucky that I have a very high pain threshold. But enough is enough. Have you got any other solutions that could help me.

Thank for asking to HCM
Physiotherapy is the best option for this along with the NSIAD and the best choice is Tab. Diclofenac sustain release 50 mg tab, twice in day with Tab. Acetaminophen three times in day, Steroid gives very good result, but you did not mentioned your age and gender here, otherwise I could have suggest it according to your age and gender, hope this information would helps you, have nice day.
