Disc herination with left leg numbness
Fours days before my mom got severe back pain & she not able to sit & stand. Then we gone to Ortho & ask MRI scan. In report that there is L4 - L5 disc herination & doctor suggested to go for immediate surgery. We are now panic & completely worried. Please suggest me is there any other option which cure without surgery.
