2.bend your body forward slightly toward your foot. The further you go, the deeper the stretch. Do not push so far that you feel pain.
3.release the hip of your raised leg downward as opposed to lifting it up. If you need help easing your hip down, loop a yoga strap or long exercise band over your right thigh and under your left foot.

Apply ice for the pain to get subsided immediately.
If you cannot go immediately for the physiotherapy treatment. Ice can be kept in the low back where you have back pain. It is suggestible to wear lumbo sacral belt which would help you to build the abdominal muscle tone which itself would make you feel better. You can also wear mcr chappals which would help you to have less weight falling in the painful back.

While I understand your desire to avoid medication if possible, I strongly advise against skipping the medications your dentist prescribed for your pericoronitis and partially erupted wisdom tooth. Here's why:
importance of medication:
infection prevention: pericoronitis is an inflammation of the gum tissue surrounding a partially erupted tooth, making it prone to infection. Antibiotics like augmentin 625 help prevent and control bacterial infections.
Inflammation reduction: zero dol contains ibuprofen, which effectively reduces inflammation and pain associated with pericoronitis.
Gum healing: orahelp gel contains hyaluronan, which promotes tissue healing and soothes the inflamed gum flap.
Oral hygiene: hydroxyl peroxide betadine mouthwash helps control bacteria and maintain oral hygiene, crucial for preventing further infection.
Consequences of skipping medication:
worsening of infection: skipping antibiotics can lead to a worsening infection, causing more pain, swelling, and potentially requiring stronger medication or even surgical intervention.
Prolonged pain and discomfort: ibuprofen helps manage the pain associated with pericoronitis, allowing you to function more comfortably during the healing process.
Delayed healing: skipping orahelp gel may prolong the healing of the inflamed gum flap.
Considering your situation:
early stage: if your pericoronitis is mild and you haven't experienced significant pain or swelling, it's tempting to think the medication isn't necessary. However, even mild cases can progress quickly, making prevention crucial.
Partial eruption: the gum flap covering part of your wisdom tooth creates a pocket vulnerable to food debris and bacteria, increasing infection risk. Medication plays a key role in protecting against this.
Dentist's advice: your dentist has assessed your specific situation and prescribed the medication based on their professional judgment. Trusting their expertise is vital for optimal healing.
Remember:
the side effects of these medications are generally mild and manageable, especially given the short duration of the prescribed course.
Avoiding medication may lead to longer-term discomfort and potentially more invasive interventions in the future.
Alternatives to consider:
discuss over-the-counter pain relievers (like paracetamol) if ibuprofen doesn't agree with you.
Explore alternative topical solutions for gum healing if you have concerns about orahelp gel.
Ultimately, the decision of whether or not to take the medication is yours. However, I strongly recommend following your dentist's advice and completing the prescribed course for optimal healing and infection prevention.
I hope this information helps you make an informed decision regarding your medication. Feel free to ask if you have any further questions.
Follow this 1. Do saline gargles daily.
2. Whenever possible do steam inhalation also.
3. Cover your nose and mouth with hanky for at least 30 sec when you go in dusty areas also when you go in and out of ac. As our nose is the most sensitive part of our body, when there is temperature difference between two rooms or inside n outside, then if we not protect our nose, it gets affected.
4. Drink hot liquids --hot liquids relieve nasal congestion, prevent dehydration, and soothe the uncomfortably inflamed membranes that line your nose and throat. 5. Sleep with an extra pillow under your head-- elevating your head will help relieve congested nasal passages. If the angle is too awkward, try placing the pillows between the mattress and the box springs to create a more gradual slope.
6. Treat that stuffy nose with warm salt water-- salt-water rinsing helps break nasal congestion, while also removing virus particles and bacteria from your nose. 7. Blow your nose often (and the right way)-- it's important to blow your nose regularly when you have a cold rather than sniffling mucus back into your head. But when you blow hard, pressure can carry germ-carrying phlegm back into your ear passages, causing earache. The best way to blow your nose: press a finger over one nostril while you blow gently to clear the other.

while I cannot provide medical diagnoses or advice, I can offer some information and suggest some steps you can take regarding your bedwetting episode and pain management:
potential causes of bedwetting after 25 years:
medication side effects: chlorzoxazone and diclofenac, both present in your pain medication, can have rare side effects of urinary frequency and incontinence. The combination with paracetamol might slightly increase the risk of these side effects.
Underlying medical conditions: certain medical conditions like diabetes, urinary tract infections, or neurological issues can lead to sudden onset of bedwetting.
Sleep disturbances: poor sleep quality or sleep apnea can sometimes contribute to bedwetting episodes.
Psychological factors: stress, anxiety, or trauma can also trigger bedwetting in rare cases.
Recommendations:
discontinue the pain medication: while continuing with the prescribed dosage would be ideal, due to the possible side effect of bedwetting, it's important to consult your doctor immediately. They can assess the situation and decide on whether to adjust your medication or recommend alternative pain management options.
Seek medical attention: discuss your bedwetting episode with your doctor as soon as possible. They can perform necessary tests like a urine test to rule out any underlying medical conditions and provide appropriate diagnosis and treatment if needed.
Maintain hydration: ensure you stay hydrated throughout the day, but avoid excessive fluid intake before bedtime, as this can increase the risk of bedwetting.
Practice good sleep hygiene: maintain a regular sleep schedule, create a relaxing bedtime routine, and address any potential sleep disturbances to improve sleep quality.
Important disclaimer:
remember, self-diagnosing or stopping prescribed medication without consulting your doctor can be dangerous. Please prioritize seeking medical attention for your bedwetting and follow your doctor's recommendations for pain management and any further actions.
I hope this information helps you navigate this situation and encourages you to reach out to your doctor for guidance. Wishing you a swift resolution to both your pain and bedwetting concern.
All oral painkillers will have side effects, especially in your age. Paracetamol is preferred for this reason. If one class of pain killers is not privity adequate relief, then we can combine multiple type of pain killers to avoid side effects.
Also you can apply dynapar qps spray (diclofenac aqueous solution) for quick relief as it will be minimally absorbed in body and cause minimal side effect.
