Disc problem low…: Back: work with physical therapist who can teach exercises to strengthen back muscles as well as core musculature to prevent excess pressure on bad disc level. Use proper lifting techniques; avoid bending over & lifting; avoid lifting & twisting (turn whole body).

Exercises: The best are dynamic stabilization exercises. Your best bet is to have a your physician or a physical therapist verify you are doing them correctly.
