Disc prolapse & Homoeopathy

Herniated disc is referred by many different names like lumbar disk disorders, lumbar disk disease, low back pain, sciatica, intervertebral disk disorders, back pain, sciatic nerve, disk herniation, disk bulge, disk protrusion, disk extrusion, disk sequestration, herniated disk(3). Approximately 25% of the populations between the ages 40 to 50 have shown evidence of a disc prolapse / herniation on MRI scan, most of which were asymptomatic at the time. The diagnosis of disc herniation is therefore a clinical one, relying mainly on the history of pain and neurological abnormalities the age group most commonly affected is adults aged 25-45 years with the male-to-female ratio approximately

Homoeopathic medicines are very effective in treating Disc prolapse, in my study I could get good results with only homoeopathic medicines. Work absence has drastically come down in effected people.
