Numbness In Vaginal Area, Butt Cheek, Anal Area, Diagnosed With Herniated Disc. Curable?
I had an MRI done a few months ago and was told i have a bulging disc in my L5-S1 and experienced all the pain that came with it, but about a month ago started to feel numbness in my vaginal area, and my left butt cheek is also numb and my anal as well, and was told that its because of my herniated disc. But was wondering if it could be more to it, and if the numbness will ever go away

Hi, Hawaiian,
Thanks for query,
This problem is due to nerve irritation due to nerves passing through L5-S1 space.
Take rest.
Use hard bed for sleeping.
Go for orthopedic opinion regarding treatment and physiotherapy.
Ok and bye.
