@edwardmilano4610 Месяц назад

I am 39 and have at least 2 disc's herniated in lower back for 6 years. I tried pain meds and PT about 4 different times. I received cortisone shots about 2 years ago and they worked enough that I had minimal pain in standing position, walking or occasional bending. But I can't do any exercise or even much stretching. The pool was one place I feel I can get some kind of physical activity. But I live in north so not east access all year. Try to use your time after shots to build up a core or lose a little weight it helped take some pressure off my lower spine. Lastly you DO NOT want to get into a habit of getting cortisone over and over again it's not healthy for u after many repeat shots. I'm not a doctor but look it up. Sorry for the grammar I am not a writer but good luck! I hope u find relief.

@JennieGirl_xo Месяц назад

@@edwardmilano4610 Thank for the info! Luckily my walking isn't affected, so I'm able to walk uphill and shed some 10-15 lbs that way (I'm not very big)... it's a bulging disc at my L4-L5, and the start of stenosis :( So I've been upped pain medication and getting a consultation with a spine surgeon next week. I need the injection because I'm traveling to Greece for my honeymoon (I'm in Canada) and desperately need relief for the flights! The wait time for public sector is 3+ months, but luckily I can go private with my insurance. Have they given you any prognosis? Surgery?

My worst is sleeping. As a child I grew up in an old house without insulation. Mom would give us a quart jar filled with hot water to take to bed with us. I would sleep on my side curled up in a ball around that jar. In the morning the jar was really cold as Jack Frost painted beautiful designs on our windows. And even now I find myself especially in winter or in a stressful situation curling up in the ball to go to sleep. I need to make a couple pillows and put them under my knees and try to learn to sleep that way

@andreadjokickv Год назад

just an amazing video! first of all - sleeping with the pillow between my legs in a slightly bent position helped tremendously. secondly, I find that under head pillow needs to be as thin as it can - the thicker it is the more lower spine pain it provokes. as for the gym exercises - RDLs and squats are a lower spine killer - I recently got way better until I decided to get back to the gym, did some squats and BAM - here I am - barely getting up. what really kills the lower spine are also back extensions when you are leaning towards. apparently, I was also stretching wrongly so thank you for making this video. cobras do help and I actually feel way better after them as well. This video literally changed my life (and I was soooo depressed due to this 2years long constant pain)

@andreadjokickv 3 месяца назад

@@rachnavarshney1587 Thanks for asking. I am still sleeping like how I mentioned above and it really does help A LOT! What also made a huge difference in day to day life is exercising but in a strictly back safe way - learning how to breathe to expand my lateral core (side or waist belly) and how to bend properly embracing the core (utilizing lateral breathing)

@andreadjokickv 3 месяца назад

btw my journey with herniated disc lasts for over a year. In that period I watched literally every PT video I could, visited every PT in person I could find, had tons of Tens, laser and all other methods of pain reliefs. And at some point it wasn't just the back but the periformis too... My method and what really made a difference is this (step 1 - lateral breathing): - positive outlook (I know it is hard - I was deeply depressed myself) - but ever since I started to realize that almost all of us have it and most of them are living through that - I realized we are not alone and it DOES get better. But we must never give up on trying/ =therapeutic massage - or similar to deep tissue massage - it DOES hurt when they do it to you. and you are a wreck in the next 5 days post massage But after that it does get significantly better. - excercizes that target core - all of its sides - front, side and BACK - meaning that back extensions on a bench in gym really helped relieve some pain. - not taking this too seriously - getting back to my old life (even though sitting is still an issue - but I am working towards expanding my capacity for it... hope this helps.

Hello, doctor! Thank you for this amazing video!! Question: Considering that I am dealing with sciatic pain (not very painful but enough to feel it when I do the wrong exercises), would I still be able to be an aerobic fitness instructor? I would love to hear your opinion on this. I am truly passionate about this and it would be a huge dissapointement for me to hear that I won't be able to practice it. I think if I would learn to do the exercies in the right way, there is a chance for me. MANY THANKS AND KEEP UP THE GREAT WORK!! I just subscribed to your channel. xx

@tonytubrick9394 9 месяцев назад

Thanks! Dealing with my 1st ever bulge in L3-L4 and deteriorating L5-S1. I love to stretch and I’ve been doing the wrong stretches for years. Sitting doesn’t help at work either. But your video is very knowledgeable and I needed to hear this. Thanks!!

@pianissimo369 7 месяцев назад

The stretches depend on how your disc is bulging. There are other equally qualified people on RU-vid telling you NOT to do the cobra and to do some of the other things this video recommends. I think the child's pose takes pressure off lower back and creates space, personally it helps me a lot. The cobra doesn't hurt me either but I feel like it's putting a lot of pressure on my spine so I'm not doing it. So much varying advice you have to listen to your body 👍

@eccrawford7759 5 месяцев назад

@@pianissimo369 great comment! I was thinking the same thing too. Some PT's say DO NOT do the child's pose like this one, others say the child pose is a game changer. I just bought an inversion table a week ago after hearing many rave reviews about them, but after a week I really haven't noticed any relief. Like you say I guess it varies from person to person. I just wonder how long I should go before I stop if I'm not getting any results.

Dr Jarrad, Thank you for creating this RU-vid channel and informing us of better ways to deal with our spinal issues. Back in June, I was hitting a heavy bag much too much for being out of shape and 65 years old. After trying PT for a few months, I then insisted on getting an MRI, which wound up showing a herniated disk. I’ve had very bad lower back pain and I'm going shortly for my 2nd procedure of a steroid injection on both sides. The first injection, which was done about 6 weeks ago helped by bringing the pain level down from a 9 to a 3. I work from home and sit in a chair for most of the day in the proper position that you have recommended, with a rolled-up small towel which has helped a lot! I will start using an alarm every hour to stand for a few minutes, as you recommended. My two questions are this: 1. I've known for quite some time that my sitting in the recliner makes my problem worse but I still continue to do it because at the end of the day I’m not in any pain while in the recliner. - Do you have any advice for a way to sit when I am not working at my desk and watching TV before bedtime? Should I just get into bed instead of the recliner at 8:00pm? 2. I just ordered a doorway bar so I can start hanging in the way you recommend. - What do you think of the Teeter Hang-up for inversion to 4:00? I have started doing your recommended exercises and stopped doing ones that could be aggravating the problem. I’ve already noticed an improvement! Thank you very much! All my best Dan

Thanks for the video, I'll try to avoid as many factors as possible. I did a number on my lower back this time, and I should have known better. It started years ago on a horse riding holiday and kept coming back a few times when I wasn't careful or too lazy. I'm a pretty flexible person in general, with only shortened hamstrings to work on. I was lazy during the pandemic and after getting back to working out the pain returned. sleeping made it worse, because I'm one of those fetal position sleepers, so I spent 2 nights on the floor on my yoga mat just to escape the pain. I'm working as a bartender, and we spent 9-hour shifts on our feet, mixing drinks, carrying heavy stuff, and I really can't afford a sick leave right now.

Woke up in excruciating pain today in my second week of sciatica following a back tweak from squatting. Have been doing recommended stretches from my osteo and from the doctors, but pain is still getting worse. Jumped in the bath and searched for more videos and found this one… holy shit, finally managed to make the pain travel back up my leg and my buttock and into my back again using cobra stretches. Gave about 5/10 mins total pain relief on first go, think I’m gonna spend all day on my yoga repeating them! Also, hanging from a pull-up bar as suggested in your other video works a treat as well!

@uzer_zero Год назад

This is great stuff, Jared. I've had problems with this since I lifted a combo bass amplifier incorrectly back in the early 90s. Definitely compressed a disc and it has "popped out" 4 or 5 times since, leaving me nearly incapacitated each time. I've learned how to 'treat' it when this happens - a combination of Cobra pose, Tylenol/Ibuprofen, TENS and heat/cold. The trigger is almost always a result of reaching forward, bending and lifting something without remembering to steady with one hand or bend closer to the ground and lift with back straight. That's my biggest DON'T. Two things have kept me virtually pain-free otherwise: (1) a Workrite Ergonomic sit-to-stand (motorized) desk; and (2) The Five Tibetans - one can search these on RU-vid and find plenty of examples.

Just be wary fren look up slipped discs or pinched nerves. They take 1-2 years to heal, when you age it can sometimes get better but it's always good to see a doctor. Also you can look up the Mckenzie institute on back symptoms and healing.

I was doing everything right. Feeling so much better. Got the green light from dr. Wendy to return gently to normal life and cautioned that I’m still healing my sciatica and did not want me to end up with a ruptured disc. What I did not know is that sitting and the way I slept on my side was the worst possible things. I spent all day Friday doing a paint project sitting on the ground on a cozy, coupe for my grandson. Yesterday and today I feel as if I’m almost starting over. I’m on my stomach on the floor working on your suggestions as I type! And, I’ll have pillows between my knees tonight! Thank you for sharing your knowledge and talent.

@krpurple2678 Год назад

I have been doing various exercises over the last year and there is some improvement but it's hard to work out which exercises to do with sciatica, bulging discs plus some stenosis. One stretch isn't always good for the other problems I have. I'm going around in circles

Is it normal to not be able to even move with a slipped disc......plz tell me

@krpurple2678 4 месяца назад

@@butoolfatimah575 It is painful to move with most spinal problems but if you're not able to move you should get it checked. I don't know about a slipped disc but be very careful. I've realised lately that a lot of my pain is muscular so heat packs, pain meds and rest are needed before I can do anything.

This post should say how soon after injury you can do these exercises. I did these exercises just 4 days after injury, and now I am in severe pain. Severe! I was able to walk and move up and down my stairs before these exercises, and now I can barely move. Be careful if you just recently herniated a disc. These exercises increased my pain and stiffness, and my mobility deteriorated over several days.

@toneandtighten Год назад

Sounds like you work hard, Chris, and are mindful of your back at work. But you're exactly right - oftentimes it's these "off-hour" activities that contribute to regression in progress as much as anything. Hope you feel better, man! 🙏🏼

You don’t need weights you can do back and core exercises like bridges to single leg bridges, side planks adding more time over time. Romanian dead lifts and bird dogs after a few months you can add weights because you will master most of them

@thomasc4777 Год назад

Dr. Jared, very informative. I have lower back discomfort, though not sciatica (yet). Diagnosed as degenerative L4, 5 with age (70). I go to the gym 4 days a week on a split routine. I avoid squats and DL's, and instead do a seated leg press, though pinning the lower back to the seat to avoid rounding it there. I now do seated overhead DB presses (neutral grip, elbows forward). I do assisted pull ups and chin ups. I hang as you did, though for good shoulder health (Dr. Kirsch). What specifically should I be avoiding in the gym to avert exacerbating my lower back discomfort? Maybe you have a video already or could do one. Thanks. Your work is immensely helpful. Wish you were located nearby.

@toneandtighten Год назад

Sounds like you're on the right track, Thomas! Stenosis actually behaves a lot different than bulged disc problems... it typically responds better to flexion-based activities (the opposite of what I'm showing in this video!). Perhaps this will help you: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-Fv3lKPAy53c.html Oh and I just thought of another one: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-bgY7uWPOlRA.html Good luck!

The dead-hang has been the worst for my back. I've tried it several times over the years, as suggested by different therapists. Every single time i hang and relax my core, it feels like my pelvis is losing connection to my spine, resulting in excruciating pain that stays for days.

@rivvy2138 Год назад

@jeovs123 Год назад

Most people don’t do it with proper form and keep their heads up. Your pelvis is supposed to stretch out from your torso I feel that every time I do dead hangs. When you go up to hang lift your head up while keep your shoulders relaxed then tilt forward and touch your chin to your chest while breathing in deep through your nose. It’ll decompress your entire spine.

While standing, put your hands just above your butt and lean back as far as you can then slowly come forward again, repeat 10 tomes.

Thank you so very much! I slept very well last night for the first time in days. The pillow in between the thighs worked for. I use an orthopedic pillow for my neck as well so I couldn't sleep on my back coz I need to use the pillow, but I also have a phobia for not breathing well when I sleep on my back. I tried it though, for an hour or so, but I was not comfortable at all. So I've settled on the pillow in between my thighs. I've also learnt what not to do, especially sitting for long periods, and what to do if I need to sit. I've had a back rest for a few months now but only used it once in a while. I now know that I have to combine all these practices plus exercises to effectively treat my lower back. Thank you once again.
