Hello,
I have studied your case.
And also check your vit B12 and vit D3 level.
Medication like methylcobalamine and analgesic will reduce pain.
You can do yoga exercises and focus on spine extension exercises.
Some exercises which can be done include- Spine extension exercises, Lying on your stomach flat lift leg 6 inches from ground, do it for other leg.
Now lift both hand and leg simultaneously, 6 inch off the ground and stay
Position for around 10 breathes. Core stabilizing spine exercises will help.
You may consult physiotherapist for guidance. He may start TENS, or ultrasound which is helpful in your case.
If not relieved you can take epidural injection.
You can cure disease by doing all modalities with balancing your posture habits.
Take calcium and vit D rich diet.
Hope this helps. Wish her a speedy recovery.
Take care.
