Q: My 17 years old daughter is suffering from back spasms on the left side. She is unable to bend down or lift her left leg although she can walk. We have already had Ultra sound scans, X-Rays and MRI scans done but no one can pin point the reasons for this. What can be done?

A:Its good that all investigations results are normal. This could be a muscular type of pain which is treated with Short Wave Diathermy, Ultrasonic, Tens. These are available at physiotherapy clinicsnear your place.
