Backache and Pain in Legs

Asked for Male, 48 years

My husband travels to much because of his work and he constantly complains of backache and pain in the legs. It is really hard for him to sleep in our bed but he finds it better to sleep on the floor in our room. How can he be helped? His working hours don't permit him to reduce what little extra fat he has on his body. Kindly, help us out?

Dear Patient,

You could use firm ortho-matress by any good company and he can carry a Molty back support for use while he sits in cars, chairs, planes, etc.
Get his vitamin D levels tested if its low, he will need treatment. an Xray/CT of back is advisable. if he can brisk walk 20-30 mins at least 3-4days per wk it will be enough to maintain fitness.
He needs to eat more dairy, fresh fruits and veggies and one egg/day
hope this helps.
