Backache - middle back

Question

Asked for Female, 34 Years

I have been having pain in the middle back for the last two days. Doesn't seem like a muscle pull. I am able to slightly bend sideways but everything including lying down, sitting, getting up etc is painful and difficult. I was previously diagnosed with 'almost slipped disc'. The doctor mentioned the disc was about to slip out in the lower back and had recommended some painkillers and bed rest in July.

Please consult an orthopaedic doctor for your problem. You may need to do a MRI to see if there is any slipped disc or not
