Guys the orthopedic doctor i visited in gangaram said that many students in orn suffer from disc herniation.. I have been suffering from it since last 5 months but i neglected it, and yesterday i got numbness and severe sciatica pain in my leg..
Now i cant sleep, sit, walk, or do anything for that matter. I Will be missing my classes, studies, everything...
It is seriously getting depressing as i feel like a sitting duck wasting my life. ( Since its my last attempt ).
Those who have suffered from this before, kindly tell me how long it will take for me to resume my normal life...
Is it curable at all?.. Doctors kindly help...
hang in there bro ..i can totally relate to u ... with time and proper care , the symptoms will improve .. just make sure u avoid all strenuous activities which might increase the issue and maintain proper posture .try getting a comfortable chair with neck and lumbar support . if the pain is too much do some therapy and ask for hot pads which are good for short term pain relief .. ....after the pain is somewhat reduced u can go for isometric exercises . with improvements , ur sciatic nerve pain will vanish .. mine did ..although it sometimes comes back if i dont take care of it .u can also visit Indian Spinal Injuries Centre, vasant kunj which is one of the best for this issue Ps - i have been suffering from the same issue since 2016 january .sometimes its too frustrating to study with such an issue bcoz u cant study for long hours like u used to . just when i thought that i might clear this exam as i had given interview in 2016/2017 and be done with this back issue . i missed the final list by 10 marks and thought now my journey is over bcoz it kind of paralyses u .. i stood up to fight again but then again in 2017 mains my nerve pain in wrist and hand with which i had to write the exam increased to such a level that i somehow managed to finish the mains papers with so many painkillers . but end result i failed mains .. then i failed prelims this year ....so everyday is a struggle between mind and body and to push .. but remember everyone has got their share of problems in this preparation and u just gotta deal with urs and fight hard to somehow cure or improve it and ensure that u cope up with the requirements of the exams and its pressure ..as of today i have managed to improve my condition with regular strengthening exercises and diet .. i can go to the gym and also study for 1 hour stretch without issues good luck ..
bhai just work your glutes.. sitting for long time messes up glute.. and doctors physio sell it as sciatica , piriformis, herniated disc etc..
Have suffered from this since 2015. Couldn’t sit in classes or study. The pain was unbearable. Although regular physio improves the pain. Writing mains for 6 hours everyday is my biggest nightmare. However I did all I could. Bought a very expensive chair with perfect back and neck support. Used neck/horseshoe pillows whenever I travelled. Exercise everyday and also lost a bit of weight. The pain is in control now. With 5-6 weeks of good physio you should be fine. After that it’s just a matter of regular exercise and diet. You’ll be fine for the rest of your life.

Me suffering for more than a decade , did everything and can tell what works the best.
No Medication helps ,it only provide temporary relief. So better not to put more stress on our liver and kidneys with it.
Best thing to do is,
Stretching ,the more frequently you do, the better.
Sleep on hard bed
Get good chair which provides proper lumbar support
Improve posture
Weight should be maintained
No lifting of heavy weights, if you have to do ,do with proper technique only
Sharing a link for exercise for sciatica ,which I do for 4-5 time a day. Without this its difficult to spend day in regular activities.
And remember,yours in initial stage please take proper care with exercise and stretching , if neglected it aggravates.
Thanks brother... folding and lifting the legs scares the shit out of now...but i will try doing it slowly...
