I think he is mentally down. But I really want my brother to become a healthy person. I contact Dr. Haroonm pillay. then he advised me go to Mr. KV Menon. then he went there. Dr gave him one month medicine and said come after one month. but unfortunately Dr Menon left from India.

Orthopaedic Surgeon 's  Response
Long standing disc problems incapacitating your brothe calls for more radical treatment. i would suggest you to consult a spine surgeon in a hospital of medical college/tertiary level hospitals.There they will investigate thoroughly and may get MRIscans done. If some surgical treatment is indicated that shall help.
In meantime seek help from a physiotherapist in a good hospital. Back diathermy, massage, exercises and spinal brace coulld be helpful apart from medicines alone.Indication for surgery is when the patient cannot relieve even after medicines and physical therapies and cannot perform routine work
