Hi im a 35 year old female . I have chronic lower pack pain but  increasing for the past two weeks. I had MRI it showed exagerated lumbar lordosis and multilevel ligamental thickening. Could you please explain the cause and treament. Do i need to do more tests ?
Hello! Welcome on Chat Doctor ! These MRI findings are indicative of chronic inflammatory changes. Coming to this point, I would recommend performing inflammation tests (complete blood count, PCR, sedimentation rate) to check for inflammation. It is also necessary checking your vitamin D levels to exclude possible deficiency. Regarding the pain, I would recommend using a muscle relaxant like Flexeril and performing regularly physiotherapy in order to help correct your posture and reinforce your back muscles. Hope you will find this answer helpful! Kind regards,
