Try getting an injection of Toradol 60mg IM (Nsaid) if no known allergy to medication and no probs with kidneys. This often helps with muscle spasms pretty quickly and can break up a cycle that might take weeks to otherwise alleviate.
I had electric stim therapy and cold laser and did well with it though that was long ago and took many sessions.

Does a bulged disc necessarily mean leaking disc material? If a disc is leaking will it stop leaking at some point? Would the Toradol injection still help even after ive been on two cycles of Prednisone? Can my primary Dr give me the Toradol or does that have to be a specialist?
