How To Deal With Painful Sciatica After A Slipped Disc?

Monday, November 16th, 2009

Two slipped discs removed so far, only 21, my heart goes out to you its horrible! Try some stretches of your hamstrings. Lie down with one leg out totally straight, bring the other leg up to your chest with your hands looped behind the back of your knee, and stretch your leg out as straight as you can without it hurting beyond a stretch, hold it for ten seconds then stretch it more-hold for 10 then relax.
Anti inflammatory tablets should also help, your GP would probably prescribe some for you.
Edit- Heat packs also work, they’re available in the pharmacy and most supermarkets but can be expensive, a hot water bottle works as well, just not as conveniently. I’ve been told to alternate between hot and cold to keep down the inflammation.
Hard mattress
A tens machine, which sends light jolts through your muscles, allowing them to relax is also helpful

How To Deal With Sciatica Pain?

Tuesday, November 10th, 2009

I’m hurting so bad. I’ve done the physio therapy, walking, stretching, everything that’s been suggest to me by my dr.. I can’t move! I can’t feel my foot anymore. The pain is almost as bad as labour.
Anybody have other suggestions? Also, is it common for muscles to go into spasm in the lower back and down the leg? It feels like my muscles can’t move anymore.
Anyone who responds to this…THANK YOU!!! I’m so grateful for your help.
