I've been diagnosed with a slipped disc at L4 L5 S1 and have a lot of pain, especially shooting down my left leg. My doctor prescribed neorelax mr 8, gabanuron od, and gemcal along with exercises twice a day and ice packs. Will this treatment actually help me recover or should I consider surgery for this issue

Slip disc treatment with medications and physiotherapy may help; surgery is for cases with severe nerve compression or no improvement after 6‚Äì8 weeks.
