[QUOTE="grgrcr88, post: 683335, member: 16611"] Dear Brother, I would certainly heed the advice of some of the other posters that have told you to take the least invasive aproach first. I suffered from a herniated disk in the l5-s1 and was treated with a couple steroid injections and some very good physical therapy. Turns out most of my problem came from the overstretched and loosened muscles around the spine, which in turn allowed the free movement of the vertebrae and the disc. I do not want to put any bad light on chiropractic care, as I went to one many times and did experience relief, but the very treatment that was giving me the temporary relief was over the long haul making my problems worse. With each manipulation of my back it stretched and loosened the muscles and ligaments that were intended to keep the space at a constant for the disc. After a couple of months of very intensive P/T The MRI showed a complete reversal of the herniation, the pain was gone and has been gone for well over 5 years now. I would highly suggest looking into a well respected Physical Therapist. [/QUOTE]
