Suggest treatment for symptoms of lumbar disc prolapse with nerve root compression

Suggeting an MRI
Detailed Answer:
Hi
I am Dr Mittal
I have read your query.
The symptoms of the query are very much suggestive of a possible lumbar disc prolapse with nerve root compression.
The disc or soft bag that separates the bones of the spine gets displaced and starts compressing the nerve causing the type of radiating pain that you are describing.
I would suggest that you get an MRI of the LS spine for this. According to the MRI report, further treatment can be suggested.
I recommend a prescription of Tab Pregabalin till you can get the MRI.
I have tried to make it as simple as possible to understand.
I hope that the information helps you.
I would be glad to clarify on any information you could not understand.
Best of luck,
Dr Mittal
