Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Yes my question is I have sciatica and I had a fall a couple months ago, my sciatica can be painfull but since the fall it seems to have become worse,could the fall make the condition worse as I feel it is more painfull much of the time although I do take pain killers. Thanks
The best treatment for your pain is to have at least 3 days of bed rest and take pain killers every 8 hours. If it did not resolve you have to visit a neurosurgeon or neurologist to evaluate and maybe ask for an imaging.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Mohammad Mostafa Ansari Ramandi, Cardiologist
