sciatica & exercise

I’ve been receiving physio for sciatica for 4 or 5 months. I was making some progress, even managing the 6 min walk on good days. Then, just over 3 weeks ago, I fell heavily, back to square 1, plus some extra aches & pains. Even with max dose Ibuprofen & Paracetamol, my daily steps are halved. I’m now doing physio related to the new injury & would struggle to do anything more. My big worry is that I’ll never get back to where I was. Any suggestions for getting through this?
