    June 27, 2024 I was in the ER could not walk. Severe pain in the groin, hip, thigh, and my knee was killing me. Also some numbness.. I literally could not walk for six days. When I try, it felt like I had all this pressure on my leg and my knee, and I will go straight to the ground. Had a MRI eight days later the results, 10 mm x 5 mm bulging disc L3, L4.. started exercises on seventh day here it is on the 11it day. I am off all medication and doing better. I can at least walk 200 feet before pain starts. I will continue to do my exercises and I hope it gets better.

    Thank you so much for all of this helpful information! I have learned more about my back problems in these videos than from my health care practictioners in the US. My health care insurance is not too good, so it has been challenging to get the best care. It will be almost a year now with constant lower back pain. I really think I need to see a corrective specialist like you mentioned. If you have any recommendations for specialists in southeast Pennsylvania, US (greater Philadelphia region), I would love to hear them.

    Hi Dr. I appreciate your videos. Thank you! Also, I was recently hit by a person’s hand in my lower back while he was joking around. Turns out the hit bulged L3-S1. Been in a lot of pain. It’s been about 6 weeks. Doing chiro, decompression machine just started), and now need to do exercises too. Anything else you can suggest and I am wondering can this be healed? I watched many of your other videos, but I didn’t hear anything about bulges directly from an injury. Dealing with lots of pain. Thanks so much!!!

    Lower backache
    Report:
    Straightening of lumbar curvature is seen.
    At L3-L4 the disc shows broad based dorsal bulge causing mild lateral recess stenosis, just abutting the traversing L4 nerve roots.
    Remaining discs show normal heights and hydration and show no significant bulge.
    Vertebral body heights and marrow are normal. Visualized cord shows normal signal intensity. Conus is terminating anatomically. Pre and paravertebral soft tissues are normal.
    CONCLUSION:
    Focal discopathy at L3-L4 as described
    Please suggest some exercise

    Hi Dr. Thanks for video. My right leg below thigh has loss of thermo sensation only (but touch sensation exists) Is this due to L3 -L4 disc bulge?

    • @DrWalterSalubro
      @DrWalterSalubro  9 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      L3-L4 disc bulge usually affects L3 nerve, upper thigh and inner thigh. Leg is usually L4 nerve. If L3 bulge is affecting L4 traversing nerve, it may affect the leg. An MRI and clinical exam can give you more information.

      @DrWalterSalubro  2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I have never hear of scoliosis being caused by a car accident. The most common type of scoliosis is called Adolescent Idiopathic Scoliosis, and start in adolescent years and there is no know cause. The most common scoliosis in adults over the age of 60 is Adult De Novo Degenerative Scoliosis. And other uncommon types of scoliosis have underlying neurologic conditions that are associated with it.
