[|AI|]  Welcome to Chat Doctor. Thank you for posting your question. I can understand your concern. It would have been great had I known your age. Still, let me try to help you out. Low back pain and stiffness can occur due to :muscle spasm ligament strain disc herniation osteoarthritis of the spine and many more would suggest you to wave warm compress over the area twice daily. Avoid bending down as much as possible. Diclofenac is okay. You can also take a combination tablet consisting of Flirting Male ate and Paracetamol. Do not forget to take an H₂ blocker like sanitizing along with it. Go for an X-Ray of LS spine (Lumbosacral spine) and visit an orthopedic. He/she can examine you and correlate clinically and guide you on the further steps. Hope this helps. Post any other question. We will be happy to help. Have a nice day. Thank you.
