Hi Your wife seems to be having a condition known as Ankylosing Spondylitis. In this condition, the spine becomes more and more stiff as time progresses. It is important to make sure her posture remains proper. Try the following: *Apply hot water bag 10 minutes twice a day *After applying hot water bag, apply Nobel Gel *Tab Flexon (1 tablet after lunch and 1 tablet after dinner for 7 days) (if she is not allergic to it) *Tab Pantakind (1 tablet before breakfast in the morning for 7 days) *Do Bhujangasana (start with 5 counts per day and slowly increase the number of counts till you reach 40 counts per day) *Avoid sitting sleeping on a stool/chair for more than 15 minutes at a stretch. After every 15 minutes get up for 1 minute and then sit back again. *Whenever you sit on a stool/chair sit ahead on the edge of the chair/stool. You will automatically sit straight. Don't sit back and try to get back support. You will involuntarily bend your spine and increase your back problem. *Avoid sitting on soft sofas. *Avoid bending forward with your knees straight. Bend your knees and then bend forward. *Sleep on hard surfaces. Never sleep on soft beds.
Next Steps
Follow the above steps and do let me know if she feels better after 1 week.
