Hi there

Thanks for the query

It would be best to get an MRI lumbosacral spine so that the site of compression and any canal stenosis can be seen. This will help decide if operative intervention is required.

Avoid bending forward or lifting heavy objects. Take Paracetamol and Gabapentin for back pain and nerve pain.

I hope I have answered your query.

I will be available to answer your follow up queries.

Regards,

Aashish Raghu
