You need to get the disc sorted sooner rather than later. If the disc is impinging on the sciatic nerve then its going to cause damage that can take a long time, if ever, to repair. When I slipped a disc, I got raging sciatica: at it’s worst, I lost the feeling down the right leg and was unable to walk.
I was very fortunate to be able to go private for the treatment – they had me in hospital and under the knife within a week of the seeing the MRI results.
The nerve took a long time to heal, in fact, 12 years on, I still have no feeling in the middle toe of my right foot.
