Hi, I recently had an xray on my lower back to help diagnose my back pain. The results read preserved disc height, no fracture or dislocation, preserved pedicles and sacroiliac joints, slight sigmoid scoliosis, and midlumbar straightening. What would be the treatment for that? Is it chiropractic, do I simply need to take anti-inflamatory?
Hello, I have studied your case with diligence. As per your symptom and history there is possibility of acute muscle spasm in back muscle. Due to compression of this nerve root there is pain associated with it. For these symptoms muscle relaxant with analgesic and neurotrophic medication can be started consulting your treating doctor. Till time take rest and continue analgesic available over the counter take rest, and hot fomentation. Physiotherapy like ultrasound and inferential therapy will give quick relief. You may need to do MRI spine if symptoms persist. I will advise checking your it B12 and it D3 level. Hope this answers your query.
