What should I do? My doc (family medicine) found this via MRI. I am an Occupational Therapy Assistant and have to lift and manage all types of patients in rehab. He prescribed me Predisone, but I don't know if I need to have any precautions as far as lift precautions or what. I also don't know whether to go get injections or go to therapy. My co-worker is a PTA and gave me some exercises, but I can bearly move today. Any suggestions?
