I had left leg pain since from one year.As it was becoming more I went to doctor and he suggested for an MRI .The scanning has shown that I had disu bulging of L5 S1 .Doctor prescribed some medicines for few months and recently again suggested to go for an MRI. I am typing the result to you now. The intervertebral disc demonstrates loss of T2 hypersensitivity signifying disc dessication. A focal T2 hypersensitivty is noted posteriorly in the disc signifying annular fissure/tear. The dessicated disc shows evidence of a diffuse posterior protrusion significantly comprimising the left neural formina.
