Lower back bain transferred to left leg

2017-08-04 13:04:52
Sir 3 months earlier I felt stiffness in my back and I was feeling pain in bending forward ... In the early morning pain gets more and stiffness also gets increased...I thought that it might heal on its own...but when I visited a orthopedist last week he asked for an mri and concluded that it is a slip disc in L4 L5 & S1 ... How can you help me sir

Slipped disc will require a few lifestyle changes.
Next Steps
Avoid sitting on a chair for a long amount of time, avoid bending forwards with you knees straight, avoid slouching backwards whole sitting, start back extension exercises...
