I Have Tremendous Pain While I Sit Inspite Of Having Two Herniated Discs And One Bulging Disc

i have tremendous pain from sitting position, or very uncomfortable, can t relax on my off day. I am a cashier and stand most of the time on my job. Now i want to sit down and watch tv, but just can t stand the pain. In the past, i had a steroid injection in my tail bone for three disc problems. I have two herniated discs and one bulging disc. The new injection i am getting help my discs, called fattigal injection in my back, which is better than putting it in my tail bone or the medical name-ccocyx bone. sorry for spelling. can you give me some advice?

You should decrease your weight. Apply medical waist and back wrap or brace while sitting. You should do physiotherapy every 6-12 monthes as this is very effective. Walking one half hour daily is useful.
