What you do for a pinched nerve in the lower back?
Most patients who have pinched nerve in the lower back present with sciatica or pain radiating down the leg. This may or may not be associated with tingling or numbness. Such patients are usually treated with medications and exercises. If the pain, tingling, and numbness are not relieved with conservative means, then these patients may need to undergo advanced imaging in the form of MRI to rule out disc disease and be treated accordingly.
