Mild Back pain for more than 2 weeks
Hi Doctor,
I have been facing a mild Back ache just above the hip. It happened 2 weeks back when I had lifted a weight and the very next day I had sat on the floor with out any back support.
The Pain has Been not to regular. It comes when ever I stress my back. I ve became cautious and I am no more the same person whom I use to be couple of weeks before.
Please Advice
Possibly there is a slip disc.
Good part is you feel pain only upon some postures not regularly
Next Steps
Use lumbar belt/tynor whenever you walk or sit. Remove while sleeping
Health Tips
It is always better to have proper check up by a specialist....i.e orthopaedic surgeon in your case

There isn't sufficient information to reach a specific diagnosis. I would advise you to visit the orthopedician so that he can be evaluated and undergo the necessary investigations such as X-ray, MRI/CT(if indicated) to find the underlying cause and have it treated accordingly.
