Please don't take any medication without consultation with some specialist as prakriti is very important to take care into consideration. Acupuncture and Ayurveda combined together helps in recovering a lot in very short time. As for now you can give pressure daily for 5 minutes on a point located between two eyebrows ajna chakra...And twisting of little toe of both foot will reduce your slip disc pain. Hot fomentation is recommended.
