Hello and welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
Low back with degenerative disc warrants detailed evaluation to ascertain whether it is operable. Meanwhile I would advise you to do stretching exercises, avoid using pillow, maintain good posture and gait. Don't lift heavy weight, and avoid sudden bending forward.
Infrared or ultrasonic wave therapy will definitely help you. If possible upload your reports, your age and relevant medical information for better assessment of the situation. Please do write back to me with these information so that I will be able to guide you better.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Best wishes,
Dr. B R Hudda
