[|AI|]  Hi, Welcome to Chat Doctor. After going through your query I think You are suffering from chronic backache. It is related to some extent to your old pulmonary tuberculosis as healing occur by fibrosis and calcification. After the treatment the x-ray remains the same.it does not change so no need to worry. Treatment of back pain is exercises, Cartilage D once daily, NUROKIND GOLD ONCE DAILY and analgesics (diclofenac 100mgSR) whenever pain. Sometimes vitamin D deficiency is the cause so get your vitamin D checked. If it is low then vitamin D supplementation(On DK 60K weekly with milk) can be taken. Avoid long continuous sitting. Sit in a straight posture. Eat milk, fruits and green leafy vegetables daily. To further investigate MRI of the region is advised. I think your query answered. Welcome to any follow-up query
