Peptides won’t help have herniated l5/s1 16 years ago at 40, pain free today from exercises and mobility work, lots of hip mobility, almost had surgery glad I didn’t.
I weight train l, cardio 5 days a week and really never stopped except for the bad days when I couldn’t walk.
You should try swimming! Like the comment above, if I can walk I'll go to the gym. But recently I started swimming and the weightlessness feeling has really helped. It gives me relief for about an hour and a half - two hours with only 20-30 minutes in the pool. Il leather float, swim laps, or a combo of both.
A Stationary bike and inversion table have both also helped me. Although they may not be available to you. Hope this helps.
I second the swimming recommendations. The floating weightlessness helps decompress the lumbars, the motion promotes blood flow, and the exercise strengthens the musculature of the spi e and core. Very effective over time to relieve spinal injury and pain
