Read your problem...the pain in the lower back region is a very common problem. It can be due to several causes trivial to serious ones. This pain generally is of 2 types : localized to the lower back or radiating to the lower limbs. The reason could be post-traumatic, inflammation, infection or neoplastic. Some fall, lifting heavy weight, excessive back strain, infection leading to abscess formation, disc prolapse o infection, tumor growing inside, all can give similar complaints. You need to visit an orthopedic surgeon for check up. Investigations like x-ray, CT scan, MRI scan of the spine and pelvis, along with blood investigations is required before starting any medication.
