If you are having severe backspin on lying down on right side, it might be due to para spinal muscle injury on right side. Such muscle injury usually manifests as dull pain on same side on standing, pain becomes severe on stretching like bendinglateral bending towards left side or pressure on muscle while lying downdirect pressure. Tenderness can be felt at pain site. There is one close differential diagnosis of it - Lumbar disc disease. It can present as pain on either side, pain is sharpcurrent likeradiates up to same side thigh-calf-foot. Pain becomes severe on forward bendingstandingsitting and some relief on lying down. Your back pain is more like of muscular type. It is not getting relieved due to continuous exertion. You can follow few tips : Avoid prolonged physical exertion: Avoid weight lifting: Ask some family member to massage your back. Apply hot fomentation over back thrice a day.: Apply painkiller gel like Diclofenac thrice-four times a day after proper prescription.: You can take Tab Thiocolchicoside-Diclofenac combination after proper prescription.
