Hello,Thanks for your query. After going through your query I came to know that you are probably suffering from lumbar disc prolapsefrom 4 years. It can be confirmed by MRI scan.There are two treatment options. First option is rest in position of relief(generally lateral position with both hip and knee bend),neurotopics such as mecobalamin and analgesics (Diclofenac). This method needs patience as it take longer treatment times sometimes up to 6 months.Second option is go for surgical operation(Discectomy). After complete treatment and physiotherapy you can do exercises as before.You can discuss with your treating Doctor about it.
I do hope that you have found something helpful and I will be glad to answer any further query. Take care.
