[|AI|]  Hi, Welcome to Chat Doctor. After going through your query I think You are suffering from multiple lumbar disc prolapse. There are two treatment options. First option is Rest in position of relief(generally lateral position with both knee bend), NUROKIND GOLD ONCE DAILY and analgesics (Diclofenac three times a day after meals is effective). Sometimes strong analgesic(such as attract three times a day after meals) is required. OMEPRAZOLE 20 MG before meals prevent acidity caused by analgesics. This method needs patience as it take longer treatment times sometimes up to 6 months. Second option is go for surgical operation (Discectomy/Laminectomy)I think your query answered. Welcome to any follow-up query
