Most probable reason of lower back pain is spine disc herniation. Especially if the pain radiates to the leg and travels through buttock...If you have also frequent urinating, burning while urinating, kidney infection can give back pain as well...For spine diagnostics, MRI is necessary...Ensure that you maintain an appropriate posture while working or sitting or walking....Take frequent stretch breaks and drink lots of water...Discontinue using pillow while sleeping straight...Do not lift heavy objects, especially after bending down....Eat a healthy wholesome meal which should satisfy your minerals and proteins requirement...take over the counter pain medications.. Consult nearest orthopedic surgeon they will do the needful.

Hello there. I can understand your concern. I hope you are not in too much pain as we speak. As of now i can suggest you to take a pain killer along with a muscle relaxant twice a day after food. You can try tablet zerodol th8 twice or even thrice a day after food. For further management a clinical examination is necessary. Kindly consult a orthopedician in person for further evaluation and management. Best regards. Dr. Anil kumar jain. Bangalore.

You should get examined by a doctor. Could be simple backache or could be a PIVD.
