Want this question answered?
what is disc protrusion in the right neural foramen abutting right L5 nerve root
Nerve root clumping is usually indicative of arachnoiditis, a painful, progressive spinal condition. Please research arachnoiditis.
Nerve root outlet of the spinal cord, most often between L4-L5 or L5-S1.
L4,l5,s1,s2,s3
You probably mean exiting L5 spinal nerve--the nerve root ends at the DRG inside the lateral foramen. It is fatty tissue within the neuroforamen. Outside the foramen there is typically muscle.
It means that the disc between L5-S1 has protruded out to one side (not centrally), and is affecting (most likely compressing) the S1 nerve root which is below the level of the herniation (the L5 nerve root has already exited the IVF). From this report I am assuming you are having some sensory or motor problems in your lower limbs?!
The nerves coming off the spinal cord at L5 and S1 are being pushed out of their normal position.
disc is herniated ( sticks out further than what its supposed to meaning it sticks out past your vertebrates) and it has your nerve pinched. I'm going to guess that you have leg pain as well right? lol had the same problems, just had a L5 S1 fusion
Have you tried gravity boots (i.e. hanging upside down).
Pinching of the L5 nerve causes weakness in the big toe and ankle and pain on the top of the foot that may extend up to the buttocks.
