Sir, I have been suffering from disc herniation for the last 4 weeks .i'm unable to sit or stand for more than one hour. I feel pain in my lower back and no pain radiates down to my leg but sometimes in my right buttock when standing or sitting for a long time. I am on medication as tolperitas 150 mg and calcyclive gold daily for the next 20 days. What should be the course of action? Any exercises that I should follow? Till when can I expect full recovery?

If you had disc herniation 4 weeks back, by now your pain should be better and you should be doing back strengthening exercises. If not taken physiotherapy treatment then I would suggest to take proper therapy with Precaution and correct set of exercises. Pain radiating down the leg means nerve compression is there it should get better with the therapy ..only taking medicines will not help.
