What Is The Treatment For Slip Disk Problem?
I boyfriend is having a slip disk problems and due to which he is not able to bend, walk for long time, sit or do any other activities. The doctors whom he consulted told that there is a nerve which is stuck between his bones. He was admitted in the hospital for about a week in January, 2013 for the same but I don't see any positive results. Please help out.

hi,
For slip disc treatment option is-
conservative management in form of medicines, physiotherapy, traction, epidural injection in back. If there is no relief for this, another option is surgery (disectomy) by which protruded disc is removed.
Hope this helps you.
