I have a herniated disc at L5 S1. I have been doing PT for almost 4 months now. Had an ESI done 3 weeks ago. Only got relief for about 2 weeks and now my sciatica is back. It is a very dull pain now and my entire leg aches. I am starting to feel it as low as my ankle and some tingling in my foot. Pain seems to be the worst at night. My doctor suggested intramuscular stimulation, but I don't know much about that. My physical therapists thinks the nerve root might have some adhesions because everything seems to be fine neurologically. I am only 19 and I am getting worried because nothing is making my pain go away. I am a full time college student and I sit for many hours during the day. please help!
