Slight pain
I have been suffering from a slight pain in my lower back and right side of the neck for the past couple of months. I have tried physiotherapy for 10 days straight but the problem could not be resolved completely. I still have a pain in my lower back and there is a sharp, stabbing pain in the lower right side of my neck whenever I twist it towards the right side. What should I do?

You can get an X-ray done to see if there is any problem. Physiotherapy is useful. You should continue the exercises advised by them. For the time being you can use pain killers.
