Hello,

Thank you for stopping by at icliniq.com.

I am here to provide expert opinions on your medical queries. I reviewed the reports you attached (attachment removed to protect patient’s identity). Based on the information you provided and the attached reports, it is evident that she has muscle spasms, which are the cause of her pain. I suggest she follow the below-mentioned instructions:

Avoid lifting heavy weights.
Avoid arching your back. Instead, bend your knees to pick up something from the floor.
Avoid sitting for long hours.
Avoid riding a two-wheeler.
Improve your posture while sitting.
Try to get up from your chair every 20 minutes, take a quick walk, and then continue working. Always sit on a chair with back support.
Do not get up suddenly from a sleeping position. Instead, turn to the side and then get up.
Take bed rest if the pain is severe.
Apply hot compresses locally over the affected area at least twice daily.

In addition to these measures, it is recommended to take medications such as calcium, vitamin D, and other drugs specifically for back pain. I suggest you consult a specialist, talk with them and take medications with their consent. I hope this has helped you. Kindly follow up if you have more doubts.

Thank you.
