Lower back pain

I have been suffering from a herniated disc in my lower back for several years. The pain was so severe that I changed jobs twice because I felt uncomfortable taking time off when I was in pain. Usually, I need to rest for about a week to ten days to recover. Of course, I received treatment at orthopedic clinics and pain management clinics.

But since people around me say that exercise is good, I've been exercising for over a year, and the pain has definitely decreased.

I think building back muscles is beneficial, and even if it hurts, recovery after treatment is faster, so I believe it's good. I plan to continue exercising regularly.

I'm wondering if this method is correct..

I'm worried that it might get worse later on.

I want to hear many people's experiences.

Please share any good methods for relieving back pain.
