back question hello my my,name is Audrianna in 21 and 145lbs and im 5 4. I have serious pain in my back I ve been through physical therapy and tried medication like gabatin or mobic which hasn t helped. Sometimes the pain shoots down my legs and hurts in my hips as well it hurts to bend down to pick stuff up and I cannot sleep at night. I have been back to the doctor and they can t seem to do anything. I ve had mri and other imaging done they told me I had bulging disks and degenerative disk disease and my sciatica nerve acts up if you would call it that. I ve asked for some other type if pain medication but they don t wantbto give me narcotics because of my age but my point is if it will help me and give me some relief then why not? I need some kind of help I m in pain everyday and im tired of hurting I need advice on what I should do...
Hi, You should go for epidural injection for pain relief. Medicines are unlikely to help in the long term, as gabapentin and pregabalin can provide only temporary relief from pain.  Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
