The treatment with cholecalciferol capsules and Aceclofenac 200 SR prescribed by your orthopedic doctor is generally appropriate for severe lower back pain.
Cholecalciferol (Vitamin D3) is often given if there is a suspicion of vitamin D deficiency, which can contribute to bone pain and weakness. It helps improve calcium absorption and supports bone health, which may aid in your recovery.
Aceclofenac is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) that helps reduce pain and inflammation in conditions affecting bones and joints. It is commonly used to relieve moderate to severe pain like yours.
If your pain persists beyond the prescribed treatment duration, worsens, or you develop symptoms like numbness, weakness, or bladder/bowel changes, consult your orthopedic doctor promptly.
Seeing your orthopedic specialist for follow-up is important to ensure the treatment is effective and to explore other options if needed.To narrow down potential causes, we will need some more information.I understand you've been having severe lower back pain for many days, especially with daily bike rides.
