I'm having severe pain in both legs because of sciatica. I am on the highest dose of gabapentin, take prescribed pain medication, muscle relaxers and ibuprofen. Any suggestions on how to ease the pain without surgery?

      I did a week of prednisone and it worked wonders

      I ice my back for 20 minutes as often as I need every day. It truly helps with my inflammation and sciatica nerve pain down my legs. I’m on Gabapentin. Massage therapist helps a lot, but check for someone who knows sciatica pain.

      I assume you've been going to a chiropractor regularly
