A member asked:

I suffered with potts disease 3years back ...d12 -l1 disc where designated.... i can't lift any weight coz of pain what can i do about it?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Physical therapy: A 23 yo male with destruction of t12-l1 disc from tuberculosis by history. The primary treatment is adequate treatment of the tb. Many people have a disc destroyed for various reasons and with time and physical therapy to rebuild the muscular support in that area of the back, one can have less pain and better function. A certified pt can guide you in what and how much exercise will be best.
