Suggest Treatment For Disc Protrusion
Hi,I am a 30 years old male weighing ~78Kg, exercise often. Last week I have been diagnosed with posterolateral disc protrusion at c6-c7. I am really worried and would like to know if there is a way to avoid surgery and reverse this condition? I am ready to go to any extent to avoid surgery. Please advice.

Hi, Welcome to Health care magic forum.
To be frank,surgery is the correct way of treatment .
For pain relief, you can opt for medical treatment . I advise you to consult a orthopedic surgeon for diagnosis and treatment .
He may prescribe you injections of vitaminB1,6,and 12 for 10 consecutive days, and then periodically. diclofenac,paracetamol,and multivitamins.
Avoid taking potato, other tubers, tomato, egg, chicken, and sea foods.
Wishing for a quick and complete recovery. Thank you.
