Is there any treatment to obviate the issue. I m having pain in legs n left shoulder Regards Lt Col Aditya Chopra India
[|AI|]  Hello, The MRI shows protrusion or bulging of the disc at the level of L5-S1. The protruded disc is causing pressure on the nerve root emanating from the spinal cord. Pain in legs is due to compression of the nerve root. Rest and painkillers will help to relieve the symptoms. I suggest you to consult your orthopedic for clinical assessment and thus management. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
