Treating bone spurs
My mother is having bone spurs near Spine which are pressing nerves lightly. Doctors are suggesting cal vit d3 tabs, Maxtonin nasal spray, exercise and physiotherapy. Can physiotherapy really help in this, as it just relaxes the muscles temporarily and also not advisable for more than 8-10 sessions? And what after these sessions are over?

Age related changes in the bone especially spine are quite common conditions
Physiotherapy will definitely help, but after few sessions it is better to start on a home programe of regular exercises
A proper back school programme will definitely help her
