[|Human|] I have had lower back pain due to a herniated disc on my right side, and in the last couple of weeks I have started to have pain and tingling in my right arm and down my right leg to my foot . I have also had issues with sciatica as well. This pain is constant and I am very concerned. I have had an MRI several years ago which gave the diagnosis of herniated disc....What would you advise?
[|AI|]  Thanks for the query. Disc prolapse is an irreversible change. Although you remain asymptomatic for years, but it can cause sciatica again. Now you have leg problem as well. I think you nerve is getting pinched due disc herniation. I would suggest consulting a spine specialist and get a fresh MRI which will clear the picture. Regarding treatment for time being start anti-inflammatory with muscle relaxants and bed rest. Thanks.
