Top 7 Signs You Can Heal Your Own Sciatica/Herniated Disc

[@SanjaB007]

1. if you have a period in the day to feel no pain 2. generally worse with sitting and getting up from sitting (bending down worse, stretching up gets better > good sign) 3. if it is worse while bending forward doing something 4. worst in the morning but improves in about half an hour cause of disc imbibing with fluids during the night 5. worsens with inactivity, gets better with movement like walking 6. if pain stops above the knee 7. if generally you are better when laying on the stomach and on the elbows If you have at least 4 of them its a good sign you can heal your own sciatica

Any updates anyone?

[@rcmarson5889]

I am 62 and exercised every morning and lost 30lbs. Then I laid on a roller the wrong way and herniated a disc. It was agony for two weeks. Now it has been a month and it IS getting better. Just had an MRI and have a disc extrusion. I felt like many of the commenters. My active life was over and all that that infers. Now it is a month later and I’m able to lay on my stomach when I sleep and can lay on my back with little pain. Hang in there! If an old guy like me can get better and continue my life, then you younger ones can as well. Be patient and listen to your body. Don’t push your limits and be kind to yourself. Chances are good it will get better This is a 3 month update to my herniated disc issue. I am back to lifting and working out normally! I was careful and stopped all of that activity for a while and now it is fine. I am very careful about lifting with my legs and not my back now, but there have been times I’ve tweaked it and feel it. But even the numbness in my left shin has gone away. Of course each of us is different, but if someone had said I’d feel this good 3 months later, I would never have believed them. Hang in there and remain hopeful!

In my 20’s I had a pretty bad case of sciatica, confirmed by MRI to be caused by a bulging disc. I didn’t have a good handle on how to properly recover and dealt with the pain for a couple of years.

@@useraccount1187 I didn’t follow up with an MRI - I considered myself “fully healed” when I had absolutely no pain. It was something that gradually got better. It was also hard (agonizing) to sit down and I would have to arch my back aggressively, but one day I remember sitting down and realizing I had no pain and that perhaps months had gone by without noticing it. This was after 2-3 years of sciatic pain.

Tried to stretch ql, hip flexors, gluteus, releases with ball...etc,initially for 2-3 weeks and it only aggravated it. After that stopped all stretching and focused on lying on stomach as much as possible, which decreased sciatica symptoms. After hour or so I stoud up and walked around in order to flush junk stuff in my lower back. Also avoided sitting as much as possible, and doing hip hindge instead of bending. It looks like it works. Keep in mind, I was able to do pull ups from day 1, but bending, standing, even lying down on my back hurted( and it still does ). I think this is 4th or 5th week since I changed rehab program, and Its so far with promising results. Edit: I don't do any gym work currently. Only controlled pull ups, and push ups once a week.

5 out of the 7 here. Currently suffering with a bad back which I believe to be a herniated disc as I was diagnosed with 2 herniated discs 5 years ago plus my body is leaning towards the left. I have been laid up resting for the last 4 days with little improvement and just found your videos and currently trying out some of your exercises. Hopefully I can fix myself this time through exercise and avoid another lengthy lay off from work. Keep up the good work.

[@IIMAVII]

@Nick Giarratano Much better thanks. Thankfully these exercises have helped loads and it looks like I am on the mend.

After watching your video, I tried hanging from a bar and then stretching my back from a position on my stomach. I also tried your nerve floss. I don't seem to have any more sciatic pain. Maybe it's temporary, but maybe not. I thank you so much!

Nerve floss? What's that? Can you hang upside down and NOT hurt?

Why is it when the pain moves up that that is indicative of healing? I've heard you all say this mayn times, but just wondering why?

I could not walk for 4 years cos of extreme pain and sciatica got to China by shear chance and learnt a whole new way of dealing with the back. It is not budging discs it is out of alignment spine caused by spasms dealing with these each day before bed and doing Tai Chai before bed not only helps fluid get back into discs but lubricates the sinews so in the morning you have resumed your length avoid sitting do as much strengthening exercise as possible earn how to improve groin strength that then supports lower back I also have an inversion table every few days I lay on this an hour and physically pull my self apart unlocking vertebrae. Walking up steep hilll is marvellous for sciatica and blood flow. Make sure when you sweat replace salts Thank you.

[@RealLadi228]

I personally have healed from sleeping correctly I was under the impression my sleeping patterns were only during a sciatic injury then I realized it is the way I have to sleep daily injury or not..this completely took my pain away before it was good days and bad days where my legs hurt really bad...so I was sleeping inconsistently only pain I'm still having is pain behind my left ankle near my heel but it's on and off....I heard it's also from the sciatic nerve. Thanks so much

I guess I have spinal stenosis, cuz in the morning I TRY to get out of bed it's like a pain level 10 plus lower back and both legs... The only thing that's releives the pain is walking. Thank guys 😊 great job.

[@lanyburnett7966]

After going through some serious pain due to 2 bulging discs, I can tell you the best sign you can heal your own issues is if when you wear a back brace the pain subsides. If that is the case, then your core is extremely weak. I obsessed with strengthening my core the last 6 months and my pain went from a 10 before I started, to a 1 or 2 on a bad day. A back brace is essential acting as your core. Core people, obsess over making it as strong as possible, and you can be pain free.

[@dsfd83]

Lany Burnett what exercise do you recommend ? If you don’t mind me asking I suffer from the same problem.

[@lanyburnett7966]

Zubair P what works best for me is doing some sit-ups on an ab mat. Those, and dead bugs. Hip mobility stretches help too. Look up the couch stretch. This should help.

[@rlanier92]

This helped your pain??? I ordered me a back brace... I be in some serious pain. I don't want surgery... I need some pointers.. could you help me??

[@lanyburnett7966]

Bee L the best thing you can do is strengthen your core. I would recommend dead bug exercises to start, and the progress with more advanced exercises. You can google advanced core exercises. But, I find doing sit-ups to be the most effective. Currently, I do about 250 sit-ups a day, but mix in other core movements like ab wheel roll outs, or dragonfly lifts. Work hard at it and it will get better. Hopefully this helps!

I strongly recommend hanging on a pull up bar where your feet can still touch the ground to decompress the spine before extending up from your stomach. Great content as always. You don’t have to beg for my like 😃

[@kobiecamp1134]

Today is Thursday(7-7-22), and I started hanging from my pull up bar on Tuesday(7-5-22) all the way to where my knees almost touch the ground, and my feet drag on the ground. But anyway it does help in releasing that tension.

WOW interesting video. I have ALL the opposite of the "good signs". -I Feel better bending forward -I Feel better when im sitting -I Feel agony when face down ( leg numbs and gets worse ) - Feels excruciating when I'm walking or standing all day long - Can't centralise my pain at all doing any of the conventional sciatica excersises. I wish i watched this video months ago. had i known these were bad signs 7 months ago i wouldn't have spent the last 7 months time in agony trying to heal with physical therapy while only getting worse and now loosing my mobilty. I have surgery in 2 weeks now and bed ridden.

[@jimdandy6452]

I'm almost completely unable to walk.(especially in the morning) How did your surgery go? Hope all is well!

[@Y0NY0NS0N]

Referring to your point about being taller in the morning. As an experiment, I once had mercury injected into my spine to help with back pain. It worked but as a side effect I was 7ft tall in hot weather and only 4ft tall when it was cold

Have you considered - Franaar Breathtaking Motion Formula (erm, check it on google should be there)? It is an awesome one of a kind guide for Curing Sciatica in Just 8 Mins minus the normal expense.
