Check ou****er therapy.  I had good results with water aerobics but it would have been faster if I could of had a licensed therapist.

Maybe it depends on how bad the disc is. My L5-S1 was 14 mm into my spine. I had three epidurals and got relief a month or so after the third one. Was scheduled for surgery, got a uti, rescheduled, but was off the pain meds a week before the new date. Best uti I've ever had.

What helped after - long term for my back pain is yoga. Regular a few times a week (2-3) gentle yoga..
