Welcome to Chat Doctor I have gone through your query and understand your concern. She is having acute disc prolapse. Treatment of it is rest in lateral position with flexion of both hips and knees.  Analgesic such as ibuprofen is helpful in pain relief. Mecobalamine is helpful in reducing numbness. If not relieved by this treatment then she can think of operative treatment. But I think you should try rest and analgesic as first treatment. You can discuss with your doctor about it. Hope your query get answered. If you have any clarification then don't hesitate to write to us. I will be happy to help you. Wishing you a good health. Take care.
