Hello Sir
I can certainly understand your concern.

I have worked through your query in detail.

As per your wife's symptoms, the possibility of chronic prolapsed intervertebral disc is high.

Thus can cause spinal cord compression causing symptoms.

Moderate to severe compression requires surgical intervention for complete recovery.

Ayurvedic medication s can have little impact in presence of significant compression.

Kindly upload the results of MRI in your follow up query if necessary.A short course of analgesics like Ibuprofen and Methylcobalamin can help to improve the pain and prevent further spinal cord damage.

Consultation with an expert Neurosurgeon will help.

Please check with your physician if he shares my view and if can prescribe these pills to her.

Post your further questions if any.
Thank you.
