Hello T Nation, I got injured on a heavy squat probably 3 months ago. I went to get an MRI after lots of discomfort and it turned out that I bulged 3 discs in my low back. I changed up my program to not use free weights and continued lifting for a couple weeks after (only machines, no free weights). My back continued to hurt me so I just completely stopped.
So fast forward 2 months and I’ve probably lost close to all my gains, and feel like a shell of my previous self. I have little confidence and dream of getting back to lifting. I know I have a while before I get better but losing your biggest hobby and nearly all your confidence has had a serious toll on me.
So I guess I’m asking if there are any kinds of supplements or medications that can drastically speed up/induce healing?
