Are you a lactating mother continuing breast feeding? VitD3 is very low for which vitD 60000unit once a week shall help.
However, a clinical off-line cosultation with a physician/ surgeon/ orthopaedic surgeon , in your case is a must to rule out other causes at your age.
Next Steps
Avoid lifting heavy weights , too much of forward bending, cold.
Health Tips
Don't massage it with force. Moove or similar ointments applied lightly may help.
