I've been struggling with back pain for a while now. I went to an orthopedic doctor but didn't see any improvement. The pain is mostly in my lower back. I also tried physiotherapy, but that hasn't helped either. I'm really hoping for some advice or guidance on what to do next because it's been so frustrating. Any suggestions or help would be much appreciated.

I've been dealing with this mild pain in my lower body, particularly in my glutes and legs, ever since I had ozone therapy for my L4 L5s1 about three weeks ago. Is this sensation normal? The doctor mentioned it might take up to three months to feel back to normal, but I'm wondering if it's okay for me to go back to my IT job now, which involves a lot of sitting, or should I rest a bit longer? Also, is ozone therapy supposed to be a permanent solution? Just trying to understand what to expect.

yes it is normal, if you are having severe pain you can refer to your respective doctor

A diffuse annular bulge at L5-S1, even with minimal thecal sac compression, can cause severe back pain. Non-surgical treatments like physical therapy, pain medication, and lifestyle modifications are often the first line of management and can lead to significant recovery. This condition is not typically life-threatening but can be debilitating if left unmanaged.
