Lumbar disc protrusion
Hi Doctor I was diagnoised with L5S1 disc protrusion with neural foraminal narrowing on Nov'2023. Took physiotherapy for few weeks and started Core muscle strengthen exercises. I had to travel 50kms a day in bus. Most of the time it's sore pain in the l5S1 segment. Daily doing 20mnts core strengthen exercise morning and evening. Will it be settled permanently. Or travel will make the symptoms worst?
