HelloChronic low backache may be due to many reasons like inter-vertebral disc prolapse, arthritis,hypocalcemia, posture related, pelvic pathology, genito-urinary causes etc. Besides clinical assessment you may need investigations like routine hologram, random blood sugar, liver function test, urine RE/ME, renal function test, TSH level, serum calcium and vitamin D level etc. X-ray of L/S spine should also be taken. MRI of L/S spine can be done if needed. Proper treatment depend upon findings. Take Care Chat Doctor.
