Hi, as you mentioned your symptoms, this can arise due to two possibilities.1. Either it can be an elevated level of uric acid, which can be checked by performing simple test. Also, with medication the pain can be subsided, and uric acid levels can be lowered.2. It may be either disc degenerative changes in the spine. As you are 80, the aging process is following by. Most cases get helped by rest and proper exercise. Almost 99% recover with rest and exercise. With the grace of God I wish you a speedy recovery
