Hello, Day before yesterday my mother was lifting something which was heavy and while lifting she got a sprain in back. She did everything to relieve the pain but yet nothing is working. Could you please suggest medicine for the same. Thank you.

It might be muscle sprain or disc problem. Consult orthopaedic dr. Use hot fomentation. Physio with IFT , USG massage will be helpful. She might benefit from Muscle relaxant and pain killers. Better to consult to get prescription because of any allergy or drug interactions.
