Hi, Im 22 and I suffer from constant lower back pain. The pain comes on if I stand around for any time but less so if Im walking. Lifting heavy objects also heightens the pain. If Ive been drinking alcohol the night before then the pain in my back is especially severe.
HiT hank you for asking ChatDoctorI have gone through your query. Your problem is most likely due to lumbosacral intervertebral herniation or sacroiliac joint arthritis. A physical examination with orthopedic can give clue for that and an X-ray followed by MRI might be needed to confirm it. For sacroiliac joint arthritis a local injection of corticosteroids will give pain relief. If there is disc herniation or injury weight lifting should be avoided. Such case in my patients I treat with NSAIDs like Diclofenac muscle relaxants like thiocolchicoside and neurotrophic Chat Doctor. I also send them for physiotherapy along with this. Lumbar supporting belt is also helpful. Hope this may help you. Let me know if you have any further query.
