Hi
guys,
As always, I trust your opinion. My husband has
been having horrible back problems after laying this tile in our house,
and he had an MRI last Thursday. The MRI showed herniated disks in L4
and L5. We are visiting a chiropractor right now, as his new
health insurance does not kick in for another six weeks, and we need
SOMETHING done, as his pain level is quite bad. He is not having pain
in his back, but sciatic pain, shooting down from his butt and down his leg
to the fold of his knee, all on his left side. Have any of you had
any experience, direct or indirect, with herniated disks? Any
advice? I am not sold on the chiropractor, and would like a doctor's
opinion, but we have to wait six more weeks. The chiropractor
is trying to push spinal decompression, but it's not covered by
insurance and is several thousand dollars. Also, any advice on pain
management for this type
of injury?
Thanks, Wendy
