Hi, I have l5-s1, Herniated disc, with right leg pain, earlier I had severe pain, I took some ayurvedic treatment massaged, 50% is reduced, after 15 days now it has come back once again, doctor does not confirm surgery, if surgery undergone, he is not sure of curing, it is more than 3 months, still not cured, I have contacted 9 doctors, some doctors says go for surgery, some say wait do not go for surgery, it will take time to heal, earlier I was travelling by bike before back pain, now I travel by bus, please suggest what to do, will this get cured. How much does it take time,

Hi, try curing it by exercises and medications, if it keeps recurring, then surgery is a good solution, you have to judge how much your lifestyle and work is getting affected, and accordingly take a decision, send me the mri scan images for me to take a look.
