This all depends on the severity of the disease, nature of the disease process and many other factors like comorbidities etc. We have to keep in mind all of them. It varies for every person regarding the relief from pain. e.g if a person have a pinched nerve between the two vertebrae there may not be relief from pain until the root cause is corrected.

His treating physician will tell how the disease is responding to the therapy.
