I just had an MRI of my lower back and it reads...
Right paracentral protrusion-extrusion at L4-5. Disc material impinges the rt. L5 Nerve root. Left paracentral disc protrusion at L5-S1. Disc material impinges the S1 nerve root.
Does this sound like I need to see a surgeon asap? I have had 3 discectomy's at the L4-5 level, but they were across the country, so I need a new doc. Should the ER have kept me and called in a surgeon?
