How To Treat Pain On The Left Buttocks?

Hi, I need help from Orthopaedic surgeon. I have been suffering pain on my left buttok for the past one month . Consulted local Orthopaedic surgeon and he suggested me to go for MRI. In the MRI he observed some disk problems at 3 places (slight bulge L3,L4 and L5). He suggested me that Physiotheraphy will be good and suggested few pain killers and one injection. I am afraid of taking the pain killers and Injection and i want to only go for Physiotheraphy. Please advice me on this. Thanks, Srikanth Hyderabad , AP, India, Mobile - +91 897 880 1294
