Sciatic nerve pain
I've been having lower back and leg pain on both sides since 3 months , acupressure helped partially but not completely and I haven't approached a doctor because I don't want to take pain killers, so I had taken my x-ray from a lab saying the symptoms and he said you got l5s1 pressed and he said to take rest but I am going for acupressure sessions but the pain lessens on spot it'll again come after sometime so will you please suggest a permanent solution and i don't want to have my body cut open
