Is there any other methods to get cure from herniated disc and sciatica?
Patient: Hi doctor, I'm suffering from herniated disc and sciatica, I've followed the treatment so it relieves me. but when I stop this treatment, the pain come back. so I'd like to ask if is there any solution without drugs, example  walking or swimming ...I don't know.thanks. Doctor: Hi ,  As diagnosed with PIVD with radiculopathy it should be mananaged  conservatively with regular physiotherapy (spinal extention exercises), avoiding sternous work/exercise bending forward , warm compression with vitamins , analgesic , muscle relaxant (if pain ) n PPI under guidance of orthopaedition . If symptoms aggravates, bladder bowel involve , neurological involvement ...... then may require decompression .   So in my opinion be in regular follow up and treatment accordingly including  physiotherapy .hope it ll help Thanks n regards
