Specializes in Pain Management

PMR: I would recommend conservative care initially, either a physical medicine and rehabilitation doctor (pm;r) who can do gentle strretching and adjustments such as sacroiliac joint mobilization. Aquatic therapy /decompression may also help. If the pain radiates down the leg , you may need to see a pain mangement specialist, who can perform an injection without xray if a herniated disc is suspected.
