I'll look into PRP though, may be beneficial to do this as well!


I'm just gonna tell you I am still AMAZED at how effective it’s been. And my injury was awful.

The thing with PRP is heat afterwards. So I used a heating pad on my back anytime I was sitting for maybe 2 weeks?

And I have not done any of the exercises I did during my 6 months of pt since the injections. Not a single one.

It does take about 3 months to feel the full effect of the injections because the PRP gradually heals the tissue.

But man oh man - it was worth it.

And I’m back to running 20-25 miles a week and haven’t had one single back or sciatica pain.

You should probably be doing some strength and mobility work in that area to prevent it from happening again. A lot of people, myself included, have this issue multiple times.

OP- mind telling us what kind of exercise your new PT prescribed
