Could my slipped disc (l3&4) be the cause of sciatic nerve pain? would seeing a chiropractor help? i'm trying to avoid surgery as long as possible

Sciatica: Please see your medical doctor 1st. Then you will have two opinions if you see a chiropractor next. Also search John Sarno, MD, mind body approach to pain. Peace and good health.
