My father is having severe pain in the lower portion of his body right from back,buttocks and legs. He is also having tingling sensation in his legs. Suffering from insomnia since last 1 year. Did panchkarma for pain but no use. Used many pain killers, homeo medicines, Ayurvedic medicines. MRI shows central n bilateral paracentral disc protrusion with left lateral propensity at L3-L4 level causing thecal compression n left foraminal encroachment. Central n bilateral paracentral disc protrusion also noted at L4-L5 level, at L5-S1 level causing thecal compression n left traversing nerve root impingement. Also noted at D12-L1 through L2-L3 levels. Doctor is suggesting surgery but due to his age, we are reluctant to do surgery. Is it curable by medicines or exercise

Hello,
Considering the MRI report, the compression of the nerve seems to be severe and surgery would give him fast relief. However you can consider taking Homeopathy and physiotherapy for him which will give him gradual relief. But some more details are required.
U can do the following exercises for back pain
