Hi. I have been suffering from lower back pain for more than 8 years. I have taken Mri twice and doctor reported slipped disc L4L5. I have tried all types of physio exercises and ultrasonic massages and IFT. Approached many doctors and they say it could be due to my poor posture. It pains even if I attempt to sit straight. I even have a problem while sitting on floor where my knees get lifted up and brings discomfort and it pains. I can't bend forward casually and it pains. I am quite fed up with myself and the practices that failed. Without back support, I can't sit straight without pain. I am talking about the pain that stays forever with me. Every day. Every hour for the last 8 years. I recently fell down from bike but nothing severe but pain in the very lower end of back aches a lot. I couldn't get up after sitting for some time and even sneezing gives a partook at the back. Overall I am fed up and depressed. Please advice

Hi lybrate-user. First I advice you to not take pain medication in longer term they have very sever side effects .you can manage your problem with physiotherapy modalities which is medicine less pain relif soultion. And have not any side effect. You have to take this treatment contiue and in longer term.
