Numbness can be definitely covered by homeopathic medicine.
You should take Colocynth 30 ,6 pills TDS. you should ask your doctor or physiotherapist regarding your play & exercises.
Wish you good health

Hi,
I'll advise you to get MRI of LS spine done since you are having numbness.
MRI will inform, exactly howmuch compression is there, & accordingly I can suggest you the best treatment for you.
You can contact me at drsssoni@gmail.com

Homeopath Dr. Rangadhar Satapathy's  Response
Hi greetings from health care magic
Numbness is only due to pressure effect of prolapsed disc on spinal nerve. Traction will try to fix the disc in its normal place and regular physiotherapy will help to suport it. For the nerve injury due to slip disc can be corrected by proper homeopathy remedies( there is not any speciffic remedy for specific disease. so totality of symptoms required) that will help to cure your numbness. BUT you should take rest and never practice any out door sports minimum 2 months. other wise again it will reappear. that time it will be more critical. thank you

i am also advise to take one MRI if money permits otherwise you just specify the actual areas where you feel pain or numbness then by the knowledge of dermatoms i can say actually where it happened.then from my personal advise to you better go for ayurvedic treatment which is not a fraud one my id
