[|Human|] I recently had xrays of my lower back and have been told I have arthiritis. Besides a back op there is not much else that can be done except pain meds. I do not know what type it is but causes pain in lower back and at times pins and needles in my legs and at times I cannot feel my legs. Do you have suggestions.
[|AI|]  Dear Sir, I have understood your concern, see as you mentioned, your has told arthritis by seeing x-ray suggest degenerative changes happening to your spine. Now pain in lower back is due to lack of movement in spinal segments and pain in leg and foot is due to irritation of nerve in back at root level. So now decompression need to do by no pharmacological and non-surgical way by physical therapy in the form of lumbar traction which relive pressure in between disc segments then take ultrasound and IT modalities for instant pain relief. For 15 days continue twice a day. Followed by back strengthening exercises and mobilization of segments by skilled physical therapist. You can apply warm and cold water pouring at home and Apply analgesic cream at sleeping time. I hope you have satisfied with the answer.
