It’s hard to give you a definitive answer. Depends on if it’s not too bad to heal. Sometimes it does enough you don’t notice then when you’re tired, stressed or over heated it comes back (pseudo flare). I take Gabapentin for mine because it tries to make me do a back flip.

Treatments like posture adjustments, physical therapy, medications (e.g., gabapentin or amitriptyline), or devices like TENS may help. Discuss your symptoms with Show Full Answer
