Hi Citroenbender, I had a really bad bout of sciatica down my left leg that almost brang me to tears for about six weeks where scans showed I have damage to L5 and L6 discs in my lower back, I had the lumbar injection and within a couple of days I was much better. The physio gave me some excercises to help when the pain comes back which I don't do as regularly as I should, I don't have the sciatica pain but my back gives a bit of grief at the end of the day. I also get spasms down the left leg at nights which wakes me up until I can shake it off and my left big toe is numb which is due to the damaged discs. Short answer is the injection helped for sure, was quiet painful but didn't take long to be done.
