Hi, I would like to know what MRI suggests. She shouldn't be doing back rest. Please put a cool pack on low back for 10 mi Ute's to subside the swelling deep in. On sides of spine where muscle is tight you can apply warm pack for 15 minutes.
Next Steps
Consult a Spine surgeon or a physio who is specialist in spine or a sports physio.
Health Tips
Bed ergonomics and standing ergonomics to be followed
