“What helps disc hernia pain when walking?”

The best thing you can do for yourself is take care of the disc herniation. The pain upon waking or sitting is a result of the irritation by the disc on the nerve. I suggest you look into Cox Distraction and or VAX-D to decompress the disc and nerves. Jay H Schwartz, DC, DIBCN, DIBE

I strongly recommend looking into non-surgical spinal decompression therapy. It works better than anything else to heal herniated discs. Icing can be very helpful for discs in the meantime. Twenty minutes of each hour. Better to put a shirt or towel between your skin and the ice so you don't get burned.
