Hi all i was pretty muscly and then i had a disc herniation, it has happened again, but fortunately i dont need surgery. I have nerve damage so will be getting injections soon as my feet burn at nerve root, so any tips on what to eat and what kind of exercise to do would be great.

I want to be toned not as muscly as before and shelve a bit off stomach

  • Hi - I've had surgery on two herniated disks in my lower back, and then last year another one in my neck :( My neurosurgeon said swimming is an excellent exercise because there's no implact on your spine. Good luck with your injections.
