I'm really worried about my wife's situation. She's been having this constant pain and numbness in her calf whenever she tries to sleep at night, and it's really affecting her sleep. We recently did a full blood test, and everything seemed almost normal. Someone suggested she should start taking B complex, so we've been trying that. But is there anything else we can do to get rid of this nighttime calf pain for good?

I've been diagnosed with a slipped disc at L4 L5 S1 and have a lot of pain, especially shooting down my left leg.

Slip disc treatment with medications and physiotherapy may help; surgery is for cases with severe nerve compression or no improvement after 6–8 weeks.
