Spinal disc herniation or disc protrusion in the lumbar region. Cause unsure. Symptom observed includes sciatica, specifically pain in the lower back, right buttock and right leg. Pain started mid-2011, during involvement in shooting sports which started in February 2011. The sport was put on hiatus due to inability to perform because of severe pain. Treatment of surgery and painkillers alleviated the pain but recovery remains incomplete and not absolute. Physiotherapy reduced the pain and allowed me to walk better. After about 10 sessions, physiotherapy was discontinued and use of painkiller Arcoxia was replaced with Celebrex which was more effective in alleviating the pain. A few months after surgery, use of Celebrex was discontinued because the pain became more manageable. Timeline is uncertain. Starting late June 2013, the pain increased. This is suspected due to growth. Daily usage of Celebrex was continued. Further actions are yet to be decided.
