Lots of options: Low back pain/sciatica has lots of treatment options. Other medications include anti-inflammatories, pain killers, and nerve pain specific medications like gabapentin, old antidepressants like amitriptyline, and Lidocaine patches. Cortisone injections are also available. Physical therapy is indicated. Alternative treatments like acupuncture may also help.
