Hello. Thanks for writing to us. The pain in the back due to disc prolapse needs oral muscle relaxants like chlorzoxazone for full relief. In addition, proper bed rest, hot fomentation in the affected area and application of local analgesic gel is recommended. I hope this information has been both informative and helpful for you.
