Suggest treatment for lower back pain
Patient: I have had a history of slip disk 3 years back. Lately i have been suffering from lower back pain that to on the left side which shoots up till my legs And travels to abdominal area And something like a click or something happens in the vaginal area and then the pain stop immediately What is it? Doctor: HiThank you for asking HCMI have gone through your query. Your problem of back pain radiating to legs can be most likely (Sciatica) nerve compression syndrome from lumbar disc herniation. A physical examination by an orthopedician will give clue for that. MRI will needed to confirm in case of positive signs. In such case muscle relaxants like cyclobenzaprine , NSAIDs like aceclofenac and neurotropic drugs will be helpful. Physiotherapy and muscle strengthening exercises along with this will make you better. Wearing lumbar supporting belt also will be helpful.Hope this may help you. Let me know if anything not clear.Thanks.
