See a specialist: I disagree that there is no cure for nerve compression. You may require surgery, an injection, pt, etc. . . Depending on severity of pain and associated symptoms (numbness, s tingling, weakness, bowel/bladder problems). As far as prevention, that depends on treatments to restoring normal anatomical alignment and posturing, your daily activities, and other factors that exacerbate your pain.
