Hi, Thanks for asking. Based on your clinical history and query, my opinion is as follows:1. If the exercises are worsening the pain, it means there is plenty of injury, or you are doing it wrong. 2. In acute conditions, rest is important. Once the pain is less, you can start back strengthening with exercises.3. Take additionally supplements like It D and Calcium. Hope it helps. Any further queries, happy to help again.
