Ive been having lower back pain(due to buldging disc which is pinching my nerve) and sciatia pain down right leg for the past 2 weeks. My doctor gave me prescription for Medrol 4mg pak. 6 day pack. Im currently on the 4th day of taking this med. Not sure if its helping as I am still in pain. My doctor saidif Medrol does not work, next would be to get an Epidural Injection. Does this sound like a game plan?In addition to taking Medrol can I take another pain med that would work to help reduce inflamation?Can you please send me your suggestions, comments. Thank you
Hi, Thanks for posting your query. Me Chat Doctor.  In epidural injection steroid given directly around nerve roots to decrease he associated inflammation and edema. You can take opioid analgesic like tramadol with me
