Hi thanks for your query and welcome to lybrate. I am Dr. Akshay from fortis hospital, new delhi. If your symptoms are due to prolapsed disc at l5/s1 level with pain going in your legs, then it is a good treatment to reduce down the inflammation, and thus symptoms due to inflammation of the root. Do not hesitate to contact me if you need any further assistance. You can also discuss your case and treatment plans with me in a greater detail in a private consultation.
