I've been dealing with some serious low back pain for the past eight months, and I'm really getting concerned. I'm 24 years old, 6 feet tall, and weigh 80 kg, and I'm experiencing pain that radiates into my legs, thighs, hips, and even affects my walking and standing. I already tried lots of allopathy medications, but I still haven't found any relief. An X-ray scan showed that there's a diffuse bulge at disc L5S1. It even hurts when I cough or sneeze. Can you suggest something that might actually help?
For a diffuse bulge disc L5-S1, consider the following diagnostic steps and treatment options: Diagnostic Steps 1. MRI or CT scan: Confirm the diagnosis and assess the extent of the disc bulge. Treatment Options 1. Physical therapy: Strengthen back muscles, improve flexibility, and alleviate pain. 2. Pain management: Explore medication options, such as pain relievers, muscle relaxants, or oral steroids. 3. Epidural injections: Administer corticosteroids or pain relievers directly into the affected area. 4. Chiropractic care: Spinal manipulation and adjustments to relieve pressure on the affected disc. 5. Surgery: Consider discectomy, microdiscectomy, or spinal fusion surgery if conservative treatments fail.Lifestyle Modifications 1. Maintain a healthy weight: Reduce pressure on the spine. 2. Exercise regularly: Engage in low-impact exercises, such as yoga, swimming, or cycling. 3. Improve posture: Practice good posture to reduce strain on the back. 4. Lift properly: Use proper lifting techniques to avoid putting unnecessary strain on the back.
