Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Hello. I have been feeling a small pain in my leg since July 2017. The pain slowly but surely has been increased. In November 2017 I was seen by orthopedic. After MRI was done he said there was a bulge in low back which causes a pain in my right leg. By doctors recommendation I went to physical therapy. After 3-4 months I felt god but pain was not been gone completely. On August 5 I had an attack of sharp pain. I was taken to ER. Since then I am on treatment. First I was given NSAIM and miarelaxants. In the end of August I started PT. So I am doing PT since then. But I am still not able to work. I don't have and I have never had a pain in my low back but in my right buttock that shoot to back or mostly dawn to knee and ankle. My therapist said it comes from herniated disc not piriformis syndrome.
