T. Gabapin 100 mg once a day alongwith T. Zerodol P whenever there is severe pain should help. This is a temporary solution. A detailed consultation with a physician is advised.

Most people feel better within a few days using simple painkillers like paracetamol, and pregabalin/gabapentin if you have nerve pain. After the intense pain settles, begin physiotherapy and avoid heavy weight lifting. But if you suddenly get leg weakness do urgent MRI.

Usually the pains settle after a few days with simple pain relief like Paracetamol and if needed Pregabalin 75mg twice a day.
The most important thing is recovery. So once the severe pains have settled, see a Physiotherapist for an exercise program. Keep active. Swimming is very very good in the recovery process.
Most people manage this very common condition and don’t need any surgery.
If at any point you develop sudden loss of strength in your legs and or unable to control your motion or unable to pass urine, you Must attend your local hospital for a MRI scan of limbo-sacral area.
All the best.

Would suggest proper rest. Maintain proper posture. Use lumbosacral belt.Avoid lifting heavy weights, climbing stairs,sitting down in cross legged, standing for long hours. Use Gabapentin 300 once daily for 1 month, ULTRACET 1TAB SOS for pain relief and Calium and D3 Tab once daily for 3 month for maintenance of bone density.

For pain, take tab flexon m.r one every 8hours for 5days, after meals.
Tab pantaprazole 40mg one daily before breakfast for 5 days.
Tab shelcal 300mg one morning and one evening for 15 days.
