I have a similar problem and my dr recommended the epidural shot right away. I wanted to try more traditional things before doing the shot, and we are trying NSAID and PT now, which is not working.

If your insurance permits, try to find a physical medicine dr (Physiatrist) that is specialized in spine disorders.

By the way, a few friends suggested bed rest, which is not a option for me at the moment.

Good luck.Health Question & Answer
