Pinched Nerve....person in 3rd world country

Could someone please help my relative? He's in his mid-50's, the only previous health issue he has is glaucoma. He has now developed what appears to be a pinched nerve with pain radiating down one leg. In his country there's no acupuncture, no massage therapy, not many medications. Which homeopathic remedies can experienced users of homeopathy recommend that I purchase in the U.S. to send to him, how are they to be used and for how long?

This is just a forum. Assume posts are not from medical professionals.
Arnica (6 thrice a day) is good enough for pain, but if numbness is also there, Hypericum (30 twice a day) should be used.

There is growing awareness that use of Turmeric (the active material is Curcumin) in food is helpful to relax and usually does not interfere homeopathy.

The person may take three doses of Gnaphalium 200c at a gap of 4 hours for only one day (not daily) and see how he responds. The doses may be repeated every 15 days if the pain comes back after initial relief.

One dose means
If the medicine is in pills form 4 pills. Don't touch pills with hand. Use cap of bottle to take pills.
If the medicine is in liquid dilution form, 3-4 drops in some 20 ml water. Sip up slowly.

Please follow homeo restrictions like no coffee, no raw onion/garlic, no strong perfumes, don't eat or drink anything within 30 minutes before or after taking medicine.

Please copy the Questionnaire from the following thread

and post all the questions here duly answered. On that basis more individualized remedy may be worked out.
