Please don't worry

Based on what you have written, there is a very good chance for you to get relief from pain without surgery

You need to just follow some simple life style modifications

1. Avoid driving two wheelers / bicycles
2. When you go home, take a pillow / 2 pillow, keep it under your back and lie in a bed in such a way that your chest is lifted up by the pillows and your head and pelvis are down

Do this for 2 weeks
You will find subsequent relief

If pain persists after two weeks, we may have to start tablets
