[quote Dennis S][quote h']Any clue as to what specific exercises the PT was having her do at that time?
Sometimes a bluging disc can cause problems, and then get pushed over the edge into a full blown hernmiation. The herniation is actually preferable to the bulge IMO since it can heal, while the bulge just lingers.
She didn't say what specifically caused it. She's had one back operation already. She went through all of this before and then 3 shots before they operated. I assume that's what they'll do this time.
Well, I think that she needs more than PT in light of the past surgery and shots, it sounds a little more complicated and you may consider a visit to an orthopedist on her regular doctors advice. Good Luck.
