Why does it hurts so much to sit down with a herniated disk? at l5 s1? when i wear a lumbar support that doesn't happen ever. pain in the ankle

Pressure: The sitting position puts the most stress on your low back. Try using a lumbar support on the chair. Also try standing and stretching as much as possible.
