If Copeland's woffie teaching was real, you could just not accept the symptoms, treat the symptoms as sin, rebuke them, and command them to go.
But since this is foolishness, Oxycodone, C, will help the pain. |

I think Ill just tell the Doc to take it out and put in a cypress stump. That wont water log. |

I can't vouch for this personally, but our pastor said he got a lot of relief from doing the exercises recommended in a book by Adam Weiss. I think the book might be Backsmart. I don't know if my pastor's disc was herniated or just on the verge of it, but I do know he was in considerable pain for a few years. He is doing much better now. I know he now has a regular regimen of walking or running.
I think I'm supposed to put a caveat about not doing anything without consulting your doctor. |

Try overexerting yourself without a back brace. That is usually good for a herniated disk. _________________ "It is doubtful if any Trinitarian Pentecostals have ever professed to believe in three gods, and Oneness Pentecostals should not claim that they do." - Daniel Segraves UPCI |

Healing from God.
I'm praying for healing for you.
How about giving us a testimony when you wake up perfectly healed. _________________ Link |

Inversion Table (L) |
famousflavius |
An inversion table helped me to recover from a pinched nerve. I had been to the chiropractor for about 3 weeks and he said that if there was no improvement I may need to consider surgery. After prayer and some research, I purchased an inversion table similar to the Teeter Hang up. www.teeter.com I got a used one for about 100 bucks. If you get one, start out at a very slight incline.
After a week of the inversion table I got in the swimming pool a couple of times a week in addition to the table. I was totally well in about a month and have never felt better.
If you already have metal in your back you cant use the inversion table. You might ask an open minded Dr. about using it before you buy one.
Good story here. https://youtu.be/0NeO3QfwOGI |

Thanks Res.... Is this the same advice for Trump Voters? I'm glad that you and I only disagreed on one thing. Other wise you might have sentenced me to death. Or is that what you just done ?  |

Here's one possible idea... |
Aaron Scott |
You know those velcro wraps you can get from Wal-mart? Buy one..BUT DO NOT WRAP IT AROUND YOUR STOMACH! Wrap it around your HIPS! Of course, it depends exactly where the disc in question is, but if it's lower back, the hip-wrap goes MILES in stabilizing your core and making things feel better. I'll send a bill. |

If you have pain radiating down your bottom into your legs....the disc is pushing on a nerve. A good dose of steroid followed up with some pain meds will do you some good.
If it is a true herniation the disc has ruptured and is puking out an acidic type substance on to your nerve. Your back muscles spasm trying to relieve the issue going on with the underlying cause, the nerve. It could just be a bulging disc, either way. I would always give a big dose of steroid injection followed up with a week supply of steroid by mouth, muscle relaxers and pretty decent pain pill. Usually that will get you enough relief to make it through the worst part. Time is your friend and time is your enemy. Take it easy and chill over the next week. _________________ That haircut of yorn may be citified, but your heart was shaped in a bowl.....................Briscoe Darling |

And while you are full of steroids, work out allot at the gym and get huge. _________________ "It is doubtful if any Trinitarian Pentecostals have ever professed to believe in three gods, and Oneness Pentecostals should not claim that they do." - Daniel Segraves UPCI |

I don't know what you should do, but it is a terrible Christmas Present!
I am sure there is no need to tell you about prayer.
..
..
but try not to say too many bad words between prayers also! That will help!
Hope you get some relief soon. Seriously prayers here my friend!!  _________________ Some facts but mostly just my opinion!

Only as a last resort. Problem with that is you put hardware in to fuse the vertebrae. That is foreign material in your body. Over time, your body recognizes this and starts building and adding bone to the area where the disc fusion took place. The bone will grow and eventually will push on the nerve similarly to what the disc was doing. Laminectomy usually is temporary.
There is a procedure where they leave the disc and shave off the area that is bulging or herniated. That is typically a better procedure to have, if you are indeed a candidate. _________________ That haircut of yorn may be citified, but your heart was shaped in a bowl.....................Briscoe Darling |

Also, when sleeping, keep knees bent. Also, when STANDING, prop one foot/leg up on something (e.g., if washing dishes, open the cabinet under the sink and prop one foot on the floor of the cabinet--it apparently relieves the tension on the spine, etc.).
God bless you! |

Is this from experience? |

He just used that example so he wouldn't have to admit knowing that is why they have the little foot rail at bars and pubs.
Glad you are feeling some relief.

a few more things |
bonnie knox |
You probably already know this, but if you are taking an over-the-counter medicine choose an anti-inflammatory (such as ibuprofen) rather than something that is not (like acetaminophen, i.e., Tylenol). And I assumed most people knew that, but our pastor did not until someone told him.
Another thing that a friend of mine who has avoided surgery on her back promotes is being careful how you move. When you bend over to pick up something that has weight to it, avoid bending your back. Instead, bend your knees, stick your butt out, and let your glutes and hamstrings take the strain rather than your back. Twisting motions like pulling a cord to start a lawn mower (or similar equipment) and vacuuming are tough on the back. If I must make a twisting motion, I make sure I have my abdominals pulled in to support everything. Walking is a great exercise for the back, and certain stretches are good. My father's chiropractor recommended he lie in bed and pull his knees as close to his chest as he could and hold them there a bit. |

Yes. Except the washing dishes part...at least that would be what my wife would say. I don't remember where I learned it, but it was not FROM experience, but rather I something I did after I learned about it...and found that it did indeed work. |
