I suggest you to do static cycling, active exercises (whole body), walking, do back exercises like back isometrics, knee to chest, pelvis lifting, cat and camel exercises to maintain normal spinal curvature. Do some lower limb stretching exercises specially hamstring stretch and calf stretching, do emphasis on diet also.
Drink lot of fluids and have green vegetables. Have vitamin b12 supplements (as vit b 12 is considered as nerve tonic), and good calcium intake ensures good bone health proteins and will help in muscle development. Exercises with balanced diet, which I believe will help you.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards, Dr. Harsh Swarup
