Frequent backache and heels pain
Hello, I am 34 yrs old female and I am over weight. But whenever I do litte workout (as little as dusting the house or a short walk) I get pain in my heels and back (lower back as well as upper). I want to do some exercise regularly to reduce weight as well as stay healthy but the pain scares me & I stop all workouts that I start. I work in IT so have very bad work schedule and whole day is spent in sitting. Please advice how I can improve it. Some background about both conditions: About 3 yrs ago, I consulted a doctor for heels pain and he told me its a condition called plantar fasciitis. I took medicine for 2-3 days only and then the pain started receding. Recently heels started paining again with very little workout/walk. For backache, 3-4 yrs ago i met with an accident where a car hit my taxi from behind. I felt huge pain for few minutes and cud not move but then the pain was gone completely. So I ignored and didn't get it checked. After that only i started getting backaches.

Need evaluation for back pain. Overall you have sedentary lifestyle and need regular exercises and meditation. Can do yoga. But may need medication if back pain continues only after consultation.
