The prognosis
The prognosis of a nerve inflammation in the back is often relatively good. A good and regularly performed physiotherapy is decisive for this. The exercises should be learned to counteract the pain. If these exercises are not performed consistently, the inflammation of the nerves in the back can spread or worsen and persist for years.
I am on sick leave for so long
It is not possible to make a general statement about how long a person will be on sick leave in case of nerve inflammation in the back. Both the cause and the extent of the inflammation play a role, as well as the limitation. In many cases, one week’s sick leave is sufficient to relax and calm the affected nerves and muscles.
