Ceragem for backpain due to disc bulge
I am a 21 years old girl. I have been suffering from backpain since the age of 17 and was diagonosed to have a disc bulge with mild extrusion in L5-S1 and S1-S2 positions of the vertebra. Is it advisable to use ceragem machine? Is it safe or is there a chance for any adverse effect? Kindly looking forward to hear from you.

Ceragem is safe
But my concern is you are too young to have backache at this age
Pl do certain tests like ESR HLA B 27
MRI sacroiliac joints to find out inflammatory cause like spondyloarthritis
Next Steps
pl consult through practo for detailed analysis
