About 1 to 2 years ago, I started to feel a subtle pain in my lower back during winter.
Along with the pain, I also felt discomfort in my left pelvis and left leg.
I was worried and wondering what this is.
I don't know which department I should go to before going to the hospital...
I first told the person who designed the insurance about my symptoms and asked...
They said it was radiating pain caused by a herniated disc in the lower back.
If it's not too severe, they told me to focus on core exercises to strengthen the lower back muscles.
After hearing that, I tried doing plank, cobra pose... and other core exercises that are said to be good...
The uncomfortable symptoms somehow no longer felt.
And then these days, I feel a slight discomfort on the side of my left leg when I walk, and since I spend a lot of time sitting on the floor, my left leg hurts more than usual when I sit down, and I can't help but make a "pain pain" sound from my mouth.
What should I do in this situation?
Should I go to a hospital or traditional Korean medicine clinic for help, or should I do back muscle strengthening exercises to manage the disc symptoms...
It truly is a dilemma.
