It has been determined that I m suffering from displacement of lumbar intervertebral disc without myelopathy. I m 55 years of age. I m undergoing physical therapy and taking HYDROCODONE/ACETAMINOPHEN 5-325 TB. The therapy helps while I m undergoing it. Several hours later the pain level is back to on a scale of 1-10, a 8. The meds are not effectively taking the edge off the pain. Not wanting to undergo a surgery, what s another way to manage the pain? Thank you.
