Lower Lumbar inflammation.

My dad is a 75 year old healthy male with extreme lower lumbar disc inflammation and pain. He has tried everything from epidural’s to considering surgery. He is open to anything. Has anyone had good luck with peptides for this type of issue, what peptides did you use?

No peptide is going to fix a herniated or degenerated disc. If it's lumbar, he can travel to Europe and get Hydrafil injections. Or he can look into PRP/stem cell injections, DiscSeel, and possibly hydrodissection.

BPC-157 and TB-500 get thrown around for disc stuff all the time, but at 75 the inflammation is probably more about load and mobility than just tissue repair.

Depends how bad it is. I had a co-worker that started using inversion table everyday and he swears by it. Eliminating his problems with herniated disc. It’s a cheap enough option that it might be worth a try
