Hi, i am working with IT company and i use to to do work in front of the computer screen for 11 hours a day..i have been suffering from back pain from last 3 months and with this regard i had consulted with orthopedist but still pain is there..i am planning to get the MRI scan ..
Hello, i have seen many patients with same problem like you are facing. This occurs because of continuous sitting, which causes muscles of back to get fatigue and leads to pain. I understand that your pain will not improve very fast. You need to learn back muscle strengthening exercises, also muscle relaxant like moral and MySpace will also help you. Remember muscle strengthening exercises will take months, but this is only permanent solution. As far as MRI is concern you can certainly get it done, but I do not thin it is going to change treatment. Back pain need some lifestyle modifications also like how you sit, bend or sleep. Do not use very soft mattress.
