Hi, thankyou for contacting us. Initially, you ought to speak with a nearby physiotherapy center. Because there is a lost of twisting, turning, jumping, and reaching in badminton, so your back muscles and spine may be strained. Start by using ultrasound and interferential therapy to reduce the pain. To strengthen your back muscles, begin with stretches and exercises if the pain subsides. Thus, please schedule a consultation and begin therapy as soon as feasible.
thankyou
