It sounds crazy to increase exercise but you need to keep moving or else the pain and inflamation will get the better of you. I have herniated discs among other back issues.
I have had one injection,but no relief by Dr Pinnameni .Have hard time getting any response from his office.Took 2 weeks to get first appt.,then injection 4 days later.I found very little relief.W
