How To Treat Mild Lumbar Spondylosis That Causes Constant Back Pain?

I have lower back for a couple of year and i consulted a doctor and after checking the X-ray i am diagnosed with "Mild Lumber spondylosis". I gone through some physio therapy and medication but the condition has emerged again.The pain is always felt in the lower back and is bearable but at times it becomes unbearable and then i had to take some medication for pain relief. This has effected my life as I cannot get sound sleep and need assistance.

Hello,

I had gone through the case and found that if you have mild lumber spondylosis then go for conservative treatment, it will be effective.


1-Physical therapy or physiotherpy
2-Over-the-counter NSAIDS pain medication
3-Brief periods of rest between the work.
4-Therapeutic exercises
5-Behavior modification if having mental stress.
6-Hot/cold therapy
7- Gentle Massage therapy by oil.
8-Epidural steroid injections if pain is unbearable.
9- Alternative treatments such as chiropractic therapy, acupuncture, or yoga.

Hope my answer will be effective for you.

Thanks
