Hi Mr Khan,
Thank you for posting your query.
I have noted your symptoms and
MRI findings.
The initial treatment of disc herniation is with medications and
physiotherapy. The usual medications required are
pregabalin or
gabapentin capsules.
Physiotherapy includes back extension exercises, and IFT/
ultrasound for pain relief.
If the leg pain is severe and not responding to the above measures, then, epidural injections may be given.
I hope my answer helps. Please get back if you have any follow up queries or if you require any additional information.
Wishing you good health,
Dr Sudhir Kumar MD (Internal Medicine), DM (Neurology)
