Question
sir, i have disc compression at l4-l5 and l5 - s1. only when it develops to numbness in lower parts of body i came to know it, as it is the root cause. i am doing yoga now. some how i am managing my daily routine. but my question is , is there any method , medicine there to release the compression?

Answer
The yoga that you are doing is great for the decompression.  It's very much like physical therapy which is commonly used for decompression.  

There are medications but they are used for the pain rather than the decompression.  

There is also a chiropractic therapy called LCD or Lumbar Cervical Decompression therapy that you might ask your local chiropractors about.

Thanks for your question, Sushantha.  I hope that my answer gave you some direction to go.
