[QUOTE="jimmyjimmy, post: 2105019, member: 511725"] Hi Folks, Hope you doing okay. I have recently been diagnosed with a bulging disc that is impinging on my left nerve root, causing sciatica. I have been to loads of private physiotherapists as the NHS physiotherapist was very poor, i just wanted to get out of pain. All seem to give mixed advice, but i am awaiting a referral to a pain clinic from my GP too, as the pain down my leg makes me very depressed. However i wondered what exercises i can do, as some physiotherapists state its hard work but over 6 months to 1 year the disc bulge can go back. What types of exercises do i need to be working on please? Some physiotherapists have given me strengthening exercises, some have told me to use a lumbar stretching device. Some have told me to focus on McKenzie exercises, however i really do not want to worsen anything. Thank you for any help you can give to try and get me out of pain. I appreciate your time reading my comments. Jimmy [/QUOTE]
