Hi, I had gone through your question and understand your concerns
Slip disc treatment is purely depends on the grade of lesion.
If it is in the initial stage herniation is not that enough to cause sensory and motor symptoms ,it can be cured by spinal exercises and homeo treatment.
spinal exercises make the disc to prevent to get further herniated and homeo medicine make you relieve the pain and strengthens the ligaments around disc and prevents further increase in slipping.
You have to rule out the cause of disc herniation.
At your age it could not be due to osteoporosis. It could be sudden pressure by trauma or high pressure by intense curve of the spine.
Avoid the bending posture of the spine,sit straight,do not lift heavy weights by forword bending instead you sit and lift it.
Change your usual chair and use a flat back leaning chair.
Try to avoid constant sitting .stand and walk for every half an hour.
Do spinal exercises .Have calcium rich food.
Whenever you get pain use warm compresses than pain killers.
Continue your homeo medicine.
Maintain follow up MRI for the progression of lesion and degree at which they are causing pressure over the nerves.
Surgery is the permanent cure ,if it is effecting the nerves.
Tightening oh hip is also due to compression over the sciatic nerve root,it will get cured by stretching exercise.
Hope this answers your question. If you have additional questions or follow up questions then please do not hesitate in writing to us. I will be happy to answer your questions.
Thank you.
