Lower back pain

2017-05-21 14:51:53
Occasionally I suffer from lower back pain when I undertake car travel i.e more than 5 hrs or so. Last time the doctor had advised for a x ray and found that I had L1 lumberization. The pain is always concentrated on the lower back area at the base. It does not radiate downwards or sidewards. However I feel mild pain on the adjoining areas at the base. Should I go for further examinations?

Hello well it's quite possible that you are facing muscular spasm... suggest you to use any analgesic spray for the time being... it's better you consult an orthopaedician and get yourself examined to r ule out causes related to spine or postural problems...thank you
