Answers:

I see you got alot of non helpfull answers.I will try to give some advise you may be able to use,as I have the same situation.Yes finding a good chiropractor does help,but continually snapping your back does more damage then good,epidural steroid injections help very few,nerve blocks help a little more.Physical theropy and water theropy are your best bet for pain relief aside from percocet.Surgery would require spinal fusion which may cause more pain in the future or make your pain worse.Back problems are very common and their crippling effects are devastating yet the cures are still midevil, and our insurance companies will only pay out for so long or so much,so we are at their mercy when it comes to our treatment.Try the physical theropy 1rst,then water,but you will need a script from your doctor for both.Good luck,Still sufferin' in the UP.
