What Kind Of Exercises Can Be Followed For Disc Bulge At L4 & L5, S1 Nerve With Bursar On Right Hip?
I have disc bulge at L4 & L5 & S1 nerve, have had injection into L4. Pain did ease for a while but starting to come back. Have also been told that I have a bursar on my right hip. What kind of exercises can I be doing to assist with pain as I am over living off pain medications as they are only masking the problems.

Hello and thanks for using HCM.
I have read your question and understand your concerns.
In your case exercises designed to increase muscle strength and relieve joint loading and physical therapy are necessary.
McKenzie exercises are appropriate in this case.
Hope I helped you.
