How can I lose 20lbs when I have sciatica? Are there any exercises that I can do safely?

I know that I should cut down my caloric intake, especially since I have been less active lately because of the pain. Also, I work 2 jobs, one is in an office during the day that the other is waiting tables at night time. I find the serving job to be stressful for my back, but I do move around a lot. What can be done in addition to this? Also, I eat pretty healthy already. No fast food (EVER!!!), no fried stuff, lots of veggies and fruit. I just want to know what I can do in addition to these things, yet not hurt my back and leg.

Is there research towards pineapple enzyme treatment for herniated disc/sciatica?

I have a herniated L5 disc that is pinching my S1 Sciatic nerve. I do not want surgery and recently heard about someone having pineapple enzyme injections into the disc or spin. This persn indicated that it was a great relief. I can not find much research on the treatment. Where can I look. I have already under gone an epidural injection and for the most part pain is gone. With the exception of sitting long periods. I don’t want surgery. Any ideas?

Are there any natural forms of pain relief for a dog with arthritis?

My 8 year old husky has arthritis in her hips, are there any natural forms of pain relief that might help her? Massage, herbs, etc?
I ask because my dog has been on both Rimadyl (spelling?) and Deramax and they both make her throw up, so I was just wondering if there was something natural that would help her.

I have had a pinched nerve for about two weeks in my lower back area. Sometimes I crack my back, and it feels a little better, but the pain comes back. I am 20 years old.
Is there anything I can do to heal it?

Is there a link between Sciatica and Urinary Tract Infections?

I have been recently diagnosed with Sciatica. I have also had around 6 reccuring Urinary Tract Infections over the past few months. Both of these problems started at around the same time, and I’m wondering if there is any link between the two, as I have found nothing in my research.

Thanks in advance.
