Your symptoms are typical of nerve pain brought on by a lumbar disc herniation. Use a solid but comfortable mattress that supports your back instead of strict bed rest on a very hard surface. If sleeping flat hurts, you can either lie on your side with a pillow between your knees or gently raise your legs. Complete immobility is not recommended; short, cautious position adjustments and mild leg movements are acceptable, but stay away from lifting, bending, and prolonged standing. If your pain is severe or not getting better, your doctor may recommend physiotherapy or other treatments, so heed their recommendations.

Even while using Gabapen NT, your MRI indicates cervical spondylosis at C5?C7, which can cause pain in the neck, shoulders, and scapula. You should add regular physiotherapy, neck-strengthening exercises, right posture (particularly while using a phone or laptop), and use a suitable pillow because medications alone might not be able to completely treat it. Short-term painkillers and warm compresses might also be beneficial. If your pain doesn't go away or gets worse, talk to your doctor about changing your medication or considering other options like injections or additional testing.
