– hang for 30 seconds and do 3 sets.
– release very slowly from this so as not to cause any spasms.

Since L4 L5 disc prolapse is involved you are likely to have radiating pain in the calf and foot.
Treatment depends on the severity of the prolapse,whether there is any nerve compression and whether there is any neurological involvement.
If you symptoms are acute and recent,take complete bed rest , keep a pillow below the affected side knee ,use a medium.hard bed,and take anti inflammatory tablets and muscle relaxant a prescribed by your doctor.

Introduction The intervertebral discs are made-up of two concentric layers, the inner gel-like Nucleus Pulposus and the outer fibrous Annulus fibrosus. As a result of advancing age, the nucleus loses fluid, volume and resiliency and the entire disc structure becomes more susceptible to trauma and compression. This condition is called as degeneration of the disc. The disc then is highly vulnerable to tears and as these occur, the inner nucleus pulposus protrudes through the fibrous layer, produci...more
