Suggest Treatment For Lumbar Spondylosis
Question: I have 2 degenerated discs tollerable during normal daytime activities but at a high pain level when I wake up and get up gets better as I move around
Brief Answer:
Pain most likely due to lumbar spondylosis.
Detailed Answer:
Hi, I am Dr Gopal Goel , Orthopedic Surgeon.
your pain does not appear to be due to degenerated disc directly but more like lumbar spondylosis. The disc pain is more in the evening and less in the morning while pain of spondylosis can be more on getting up in the morning.
I would recommend painkillers at bed time , muscle relaxants and most important exercises for strengthening spinal muscles to be done twice daily.
Hope this will be useful for you. Please feel free to ask any other question.
