is there any treatment for chronic back pain with normal ray
hello I cannot see the film of the ray but the report is on mild straightening of the lumbar spine vertebra and disc spaces are normal us is normal except for mild fatty liver it seems that there are two issues here lack of exercise and long hours of sitting not lead to weak core muscles and as a result the structure of the back is feeling the strain usually the muscle help to take the load of the upper body but if they are weak the disc and facet joints start sharing more load and hence the back pain the best option is to start physiotherapy do core exercises planks bridges superman position cat camel clamshell etc you will get videos on the internet if you cannot go to a physiotherapist avoid sitting for more than 20 minutes at stretch preferably use a standing desk take a course of anti inflammatory tablets and apply ice and pain gels though not together come back after three weeks
