Lower back pain
My sister have back pain issue since around 1year. The range of the pain was she was unable to sit continuously for 2-3 hours and unable to stand continuously for 3-4 hours. When she took rest she was fine there was no pain. Due to this we consulted orthopedic 6months back And they conducted MRI scanning and mentioned that " there is gap or damage in between disk and for that doctor suggested that Take rest for 6months to 1year and don't do works at all. I have reports with me now. Could you revise it once and give me 2nd opinion on this please...

There is no point in taking rest for 1 year. If pain continues meet a spine surgeon. If still normal take painkillers and start physiotherapy. You should be able to get back to work sooner rather than later
