Hi,
The slipped disc issue may cause shooting pains that radiate from the spine to the limbs. The pain worsens ok bending forward and lifting heavy weight. Please avoid bending forward, lifting heavy weight, riding motor cycle or bicycle. Please take high calcium diet. Nerve relaxants like Gabapentin and anti-inflammatory medicines will help you.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Dr. Abhishek Juneja, Neurologist

Hello,
I recommend starting therapy for chronic pain management. In this regard, Pregabalin and Amitriptyline or Duloxetine would be helpful, concomitantly with physiotherapy.
