I am a delivery boy working in grocery delivery.
I drive a bike and lift heavy groceries.
Pain since 2months.
My father's age is 51
He has been diagnosed with slip disc (between L4 and L5)
I have attached the MRI reports
He is having unbearable pain that starts from lower back n goes till left leg
He is not able to sit even for 10 sec tingling and pain starts
We have shown one spine surgeon
He told us to take meds for 3 week n if condition doens't improve then proceeds to surgery
He has given
Ultracet
Pan - D
Gaba neuron (NT 400/10)
Even taking for 10+ days there is no major improvement
We have shown to 2nd doctor for second opinion as it is feeling so much risky for operation
And 2nd doctor said don't take so much meds
And he told to take meds for 6days and stop the previous med
He prescribed
DFZ 6mg
If no improvement then have to do surgery
So now i m confused wht should I do and whom should I consult
Is surgery is the only solution left for my dad?
He is having high blood pressure, diabetes and taking meds of that too
Whom should I consult i want assurance and more discussion
My vitamin D deficiency has been corrected after 3 months of Uprise D3, but I still have calf pain and tingling sometimes although it's less than before.
Which routine tests should I get now? Should I check serum magnesium, vitamin B12, calcium, potassium, thyroid (TSH), or any other tests?
Recently, left thumb injury and as per X ray confirmed bony mallet finger.
Is it corrected by 5-6 weeks of normal splint use or it needs a surgical procedure!
