Orthopaedic Surgeon,  's  Response
Dear patient
You have got nerve root compression at l45 levels with radicular pain in Lower limb. Compression is due to disc prolapse. Treatment is bed rest for one week and medication. Start tab medrol 8mg twice a day and tab pregalin X one at bedtime for pain relief. Take tab Myospas forte twice a day for 7 days. If this do not help in relieving pain next step is injection of epidural steroid. This procedure is safe and done under local anesthesia and helps in relieving chemical neuritis. You should consult expert pain management specialist and get it done. Injection dynapar can be given sos for pain relief. All the best. .
