Struggling to identity the backpain type
On November 13th after working continuously for two hours bending over forward started experiencing low back pain, initially over two months the pain was casual, at the moment pain occurs suddenly and at the time pain dissappears completely, pain was uncertain,
had my x-ray , doctor diagnosed it for loss of lumbar lordosis viewing my x-ray, was under medication over two weeks, nothing much improved then.
Now for over one month am struggling from lower back pain specially the first wake in the morning, have trouble getting peace sleeping, sleep gets interrupted several time over night, the pain targets mostly at right muscular part right above the pelvis and with the movement activity after waking up gets right, got consulted with online doctor, he diagnosed it for degenerative disc, recommended some exercises and medication, but still struggling waking up with tighting muscle pain in the morning.

Pain is sign of body that something is wrong so as you said you are facing more pain in morning that means when your muscles are paining you when they need to contract & relax after rest. This can be due to weak muscles as you took rest for long time or might be due to deficiency of calcium, vit. D , b12.

My suggestion is you start doing streching, exercise and visit a nearby physiotherapist rather than consulting online. Your pain can be easily be reduced by manual therapy. I suggest you take that from a nearby therapist and then start with exercises and postural training. Continue the streching and exercises and wear proper belt for lumbar support during work.

It sounds like your lower back pain started after prolonged bending and has become worse over time, especially in the mornings. Since youâve been diagnosed with loss of lumbar lordosis and possible degenerative disc issues, morning stiffness and muscle tightness are common.
Next Steps
Since the pain has been ongoing, a physiotherapy session might help in assessing the root cause and giving targeted treatment. Let me know if youâd like to book an appointment! ð
Health Tips
â
Proper Sleeping Position â Try sleeping on your side with a pillow between your knees or on your back with a pillow under your knees. â
Gentle Stretches Before Bed & After Waking Up â Light stretching can relax the muscles and reduce stiffness. â
Use Heat Therapy â A warm compress before bed can help relax tight muscles. â
Strengthening Exercises â Core and back strengthening exercises (as suggested by your doctor) can provide long-term relief. â
Avoid Long Sitting or Bending Forward â Maintain good posture throughout the day.

Hello,
Your symptoms suggest chronic lower back pain, possibly due to loss of lumbar lordosis, muscle tightness, or early degenerative disc changes. Since your pain is worse in the morning and improves with movement, it's likely related to stiff muscles and reduced spinal flexibility overnight.
Next Steps
Get a physio session nearby you or take a online physiotherapy consultation
