Chronic Back pain with disc enlargement

This is for my wife Manjari - 42 years old -

1. She is having chronic back pain in lower back and mid back portion from last 10 years. While lying down she feels great difficulty due to pain and stiffness in turning sideways and feels pain while getting up.
2. X rays of dorsal lumbar spine didn't reveal anything earlier till 2011. But in 2011 - it revealed spondylysis in L5-S1 and osteoporatic symptoms. Patholgy revealed high ESR, low vit D level. Allopatahy doctor prescribed analgesics,calcerol, IDROPHOS 150 and calcium supplements. But the condition didnot improve.
3. MRI in last week revealed mild diffuse disc bulge in L5-S1 and L4-L5 with pressing foramina. Pathology reveals high ESR of 55, Haemoglobin is very low 6.8. Due to this continuous pain she is mentally depressed.
4. With exercises the pain increases so she has to stop exercises.

Can anyone please help.

Make sure you keep all medicines away from direct sunlight, strong smell, strong heat zone (keep it in a dark cool place away from allopathic medicines). Also make sure the dropper is fitted with the bottle, else use separate dropper for different medicine for making doses, this will avoid unnecessary contamination.

Please follow homeopathy restrictions like no coffee, no raw onion/garlic, and no strong perfumes, don't eat or drink anything within 45 minutes before or after taking medicine and brushing of teeth one hour before or one hour after taking the medicine. These restrictions need to be followed each time you take homeopathy medicines during the treatment.

Please keep me updated.

Blessings & Prayers,
Nikkie.
