New to Sciatica, where should I keep my bag 👉👈
Hi fam,
It started almost 3 weeks ago, most probably from gymming, but I don't know how anything happens to anyone.
Background - 26M, sedentary for the most part, but works out regularly.
It started with muscle pain in my right glute and back and down the leg. No numbness for the first week.
I saw an Ortho; he figured something like Sciatica and gave me meds. From the second week, numbness started when standing up after sitting. He added one med which was for nerve damage.
I got an MRI; results:
Mild straightening of lumbar spinal curvature. Vertebral bodies are normal in size & signal intensity. Desiccative disc changes seen at L5-S1 level. Gap - 9.1 MM.
Right now, I'm starting PT & on meds. What are some dos and don'ts? I want to fix this completely.
Problems being faced:
Hurts when I sit in my glute. Only right leg.
Numbness in foot.
No major pain.
