Hello, Lumbar Radicular symptoms include pain which radiates into the lower extremity (thigh, calf, and occasionally the foot) directly along the course of a specific spinal nerve root. The most common symptom of radicular pain is sciatica (pain that radiates along the sciatic nerve - down the back of the thigh and calf into the foot).
Treatment:
- In the initial stage, the doctor suggests a nonsurgical treatment (such as physical therapy, medications) which often gets improve within 6 weeks to 3 months.
- Since in your case the nonsurgical treatment does not alleviate the pain, decompressive surgeries such as laminectomy and/or discectomy/microdiscectomy. These surgeries typically provides relief of radicular pain for 85% to 90% of patients.
We suggest you to consult a nearby Orthopedic and only after a physical examination, the complete treatment can be provided by the doctors. I hope this answers your query. Find our page which will help you look for doctors - Orthopedic Doctor in India.
Hi, I need urgent treatment for vestibular migraine. Please guide me with its treatment.

Answered on 23rd May '24
Hello,
- There's no specific medication for vestibular migraines. Your doctor will prescribe different drugs to stop an attack when it happens, same is called abortive therapy:
- Triptans: this medicine is taken at the first sign of headache symptoms.
- Vestibular suppressant: It can ease your dizziness and motion sensitivity. This type of drug works on the balance center in your inner ear. Your doctor might prescribe benzodiazepines like lorazepam (Ativan), anti-nausea drugs like promethazine (Phenergan),
- Antihistamines: like meclizine.
- If you have frequent or disabling vestibular migraines, your doctor may try drugs similar to traditional migraine prevention meds. These include:
- seizure medicines,
- blood pressure medicines (like beta blockers and calcium channel blockers),
- and some antidepressants.
- CGRP inhibitors: are a new class of preventive medicine that your doctor may recommend if other medicines don't help.
We suggest you consult a doctor regarding migraine treatment, before going for any medicines, as they prescribe you the medicine according to your health condition, and our page might help with that - General Physicians in India. Hope this answers your query.

No single "promising treatment" will work for everyone with restless leg syndrome. Commonly recommended treatments include medications, lifestyle changes, and physical therapies. Medications and treatments can be prescribed only after a proper diagnosis. Rest you should avoid caffeine, alcohol, and tobacco to reduce the severity of symptoms. Physical therapies such as stretching, massage, and yoga can help relieve muscle tension and improve sleep quality. It is also important to discuss any feelings of depression with your doctor and consider seeking therapy or counseling.

However, medications such as oxybutynin, tolterodine, and solifenacin may be effective in treating urinary incontinence. Additionally, physical therapy and pelvic floor exercises may help improve her walking and bladder control.
