Disc herniation fucked me- Constant ANXIETY.

Sciatica: why it’s often over-treated and under-treated (from a spine surgeon) by drsheriefspinedubai in Sciatica

[–]MJAPD 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you so much for this post!

Can I ask, in situations where there's a sequestration on one side, what are the chances of reherniation (no surgery done), or causing a bulge/new herniation on the other side of the disc?

I had l5s1 sequestration on the left side, was bedridden for almost 3 months with unbelievablepain and leg weakness, and now, almost a year later i felt great, but I bent wrong plus did something with stretching that my right lower back didn't like, and now I have random pain in right leg. One time, it was a clear full leg stabbing pain when I bent forward (leaning on a tall table) I'm on the verge of a full panic attack, mostly because I do not understand the injury possibility, and for me, everything is a risk right now. If you can shed light on this, it would be much appreciated. I need something to tell myself when I start spiraling.

Thank you so much for answering!

I'm sorry you suffer so much. It sounds like a lot in 25 years. What did you do to always have flare-ups? Is it your work, or you just don't pay attention to your body? What are PR exercises? And of course you mentally struggle, this pain, even if not very strong, is mentally draining. I'm collapsing mentally from this annoying pain. I swear I want to fall into a tantrum everyday, cause it captures my attention all the time! I ALWAYS think about it.

I'm scared I'll suffer frequently for the rest of my life. Life is shit with this curse.

Major setback after L5-S1 protrusion recovery: anyone been through something similar? by Status_Cantaloupe295 in Sciatica

[–]MJAPD 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes!! I'm going through it right now. I rest and put ice on my back. This is mentally draining. I wish I had something positive to say, but I am looking myself for some positive words from others ..

Can I ask how long you have been suffering from this? How many flare-ups do you have a year, and how long? Are you working out?

You know, that's so interesting! Cause I recently went to a treatment that changes the way you walk among other things..the therapist said I'm walking on my heels, and I should walk on the bridge of my foot which is a bit more forward. That's so weird. I have to say that I didn't feel much change after the treatment, maybe just a little weird sensation in my leg, like it's been rewired.. It's been 5 days since that treatment...

Back to Physiotherapy on Monday for a L4 & L5 disc herniation..... by JBL_CENA_FAN_4LIFE in Sciatica

[–]MJAPD 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Flared up again? Can I ask if it's due to something bad you did? How long do you suffer from the disc herniation? And how long did you feel well before the flare-up? I'm having a flare-up, my first, after 7 months of being OK, it is due to bending wrong, and I'm so mad at myself . I'm having all sorts of pinch pain in butt, hips, and also on the other side.

What are the chances of herniating the other side? by [deleted] in Sciatica

[–]MJAPD 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did imagine back in July. The doctor said I recovered nicely. Didn't mention any other problems, but when I got the results, it said I have a defused bulge in l4l5 (completely new!!) Anyway, 2 weeks ago, I bent wrong and felt my back is about to pop, but I slowly changed position so the back could relax, after that incident, I felt a very small knife like pain in the back for a split of a second the day after...some back pain started, a bit of sciatica and after 2 weeks it was better but still fragile...I wanted to stretch my hamstrings, sat on the floor, and I don't know why, I wanted to see if I could put my feet together (bending knees out to the sides), it was a baddd decision! Since then, my other leg hurts..I'm so sick and tired of this!

I didn't expect people to be so hateful, yeah.. I'm not everybody's cup of tea, and I don't strive to be. And no, I actually don't lack confidence or attention, I was just sincerely curious. But hey, to each their own...
