I had a herniated disc (L4/L5) operated on some 7 years ago... The Neurosurgen is about the best in the south. 6 weeks after the surgery, I was bacdk to work full on with no restrictions. :thumbsupI am a heating and A/C contractor). I had not had any pain or problems until a couple of weeks ago when I did something I shouldn't have.
I went to my local chiropractor, and after the first adjustment, I was pain free, but felt a little "bruised", and after the second adjustment, I have been totally pain free. At night, I will take a couple of hits of Toxic Blue....this was specifically bred to be a pain relief strain, and works very well. In any case it turns out that my injury is the result of a combination of 30 year old injuries, and degenerative disc disease. The chiropractor has me on a 3 month program that is supposed to reverse the disc problem, as well as get me completely healed. I really hate to go to my GP, because all he seems to know is to prescribe more pills that just don't *DO* anything other than knock me on my a$$ and make me so I can't function.

Most strains that are really heavy on indica, when properly grown and harvest at the right time will work well for body pain relief.
Mississippi Steve Reviewed by Mississippi Steve on . herniated disc !!!help!!! it is a pain in the ass trying to find out anything relevant from the internet without having to buy this or subscribe to that, so i'm calling on the openness of these forums and the experience of those out there who don't mind sharing their experience with others who have similar conditions. anyone out there with chronic back pain, bulging or herniated discs, or spinal stenosis. i'm curious about what kind of treatments have been effective at relieving the most severe back or neck pain.
