Lumbar disc: Lumbar disc disease is often treated with physical therapy. If the pain persists, cortisone injections with a pain management physician may help alleviate the pain. Alternatively, chiropractic care, aquatic therapy and surgery can reduce the pain associated with lumbar disc disease. See your neurosurgeon for further treatment options.
