I ended up having to go to ER on several occasions from pain caused by the "nerve compression"
I wasn't able to walk for months, and had extreme pain for two years. I was 27 when I was first crippled by mystery Back pain that had been building in intensity for months.
Eventually the pain was linked to a herniated disc and L6.
Chiropractic was step one. Daily physio was step two.
Excercise, Excercise, Excercise, was the MOST important thing.
Once I could stand again, I started taking bellydance classes from YouTube, and guess what?
the movements focus ENTIRELY on the sacral area,
and became the best pain solution ever.
Walking, and elliptical helped as well.
Non-steroid anti-inflammatory pain killers helped, in between.
Mine was Ketoprofin, which helped with pain, but also was safe with my heart.
The long term treatment will include yoga for the rest of my life, to help build the up the muscles in the absence of structural support.
Another thing....no more desk jobs. Forget it.
Avoid sitting for extended periods of time....and if you already have a desk job, try getting up and taking a quick walk every few hours.....
or stand up and touch your toes,
and be VERY aware of any stiffness or pain you are feeling in your back...
I recently had to quit the first "real" job I have worked in 2 years, because it was a desk jobs.
I had been pain free for six months, and then suddenly, within a two months of working there, my pain "attacks" suddenly re-appeared, starting from weekly, every four days, to every other day.
I was suddenly back at the chiropractor's more and more often,
and after the final attack I admitted that it was time to quit.
......
so...take care of your spine...
and don't think of your extra vertabrae as a bad thing,,,,
if you happen to be a bellydancer, (or ever thought of becoming one)
in my chiropractors words "you were literally born to do it"

How many people have 6 lumbar vertebrae?
The link should help. It says 10% of adults. I know this because I have the same condition except I wasn't technically an adult when I was diagnosed. I hope the link helped.
Is there any disc between S1 and S2 vertebrae?
No. The L5-S1 Intervertebral disc is the last disc in the spine because the 5 segments of the sacrum and the 4 segments of the coccyx are fused (though they are seperated from each other by a ligament).
What is L5-S1 is rudimentary?
This means that the lumbar vertebra #5 (the last one) is very small and not completely developed. S1 is the first sacral and is the same. The sacrum is composted of 5 fused vertebra. This may have produced some weakness in muscle movement or skin sensation.
What are vertebrae and what is their function?
A vertebrae are bones in the spinal column (also called spine or backbone)The function of the spinal column is to protect the soft spinal cord and to support the body and hold the head upright.Plural for vertebra. Bony segments forming the human spinal column.31-33 total vertebrae (most adults have 33 total vertebrae)Cervical vertebrae (C1-C7): 7Thoracic vertebrae (T1-T12): 12Lumbar vertebrae (L1-L5): 5Sacral vertebrae (S1-S5): 5Coccygeal vertebrae: 3-5IT IS THE SMALL BONES THAT FORM THE SPINAL CORDvertebrae i a series of bones to make up the spine. A vertabrae is an animal with a back bone. There are five classes of vertabrae: amphibeans, birds, fish, mamals, and reptiles.
How are the vertebrae numbered in the human spine?
The vertebral column which also none as the spinal column is divided into segments made of 32 bones. The Cervical vertebrae has 7 bones which make up the neck. The Thoracic vertebrae has 12 bones and forms the upper back. The Lumbar vertebrae has 5 bones and forms the lower back. The fifth articulates with the sacrum which in turn articulates with the coccyx. The cervical, thoracic, and lumbar regions consist of individual vertebrae. The Bones are labeled according to the region. Example the Cervical region is labelled C-1-7, the thoracic is labelled T-1-12 and the lumbar area is labled L-1-5. The Sacrum consists of fused components of 5 sacral vertebrae. The Coccyx consists of 3-5 coccygeal vertebrae that have fused together.

Severe facet arthritis in L5-S1?
The L5 is the lowest of the vertebrae of the lumbar and S1 is the first vertebra of the sacrum. Severe facet arthritis is when the sacs between these vertebrae become inflamed and arthritic.
What causes lumbarization of the s1 and how can it be treated?
Lumbarization of the s 1, or top segment of the sacrum, refers to a birth defect where the sacrum is not fused to the rest of the spine properly. Experts believe it is simply something that happens inside the womb, and very rarely affects a person's health.
Can lumbarization of s1 be treated?
The sacrum bone in the posterior pelvis comes from the fusing of 5 sacral vertebrae, which are numbered from superior (S1) to anterior (S5). The sacral bones fully fuse typically by around age 23, but sometimes the S1 vertebra does not fus with the others. When this happens, it's called lumbarization.
What are the consequences of lumbarisation of the s1?
Lumbarization (US) lumbarisation (UK) refers to a spinal bone that takes on some of the appearances and physical characteristics of another type of vertebrae or spinal bone. At S1 lumbarisation means the S1 segment, which is usually, one of five fused segments making up the sacrum or tail bone, is not fully fused or attached to the rest of the tail bone. IT is a "sacral" segment that looks like a "lumbar" segment. It appears to be 6th lumbar vertebrae. It may have a disc or a rudimentary disc space. Functionally, a lumbarized S1 usually does not have all the functions of a normal lumbar vertebra. In most instances, this finding is interesting, but does not usually cause pain or disability. In some rare cases the joint may become irritated and painful due to injury.
Is there any disc between S1 and S2 vertebrae?
No. The L5-S1 Intervertebral disc is the last disc in the spine because the 5 segments of the sacrum and the 4 segments of the coccyx are fused (though they are seperated from each other by a ligament).
Does the lumbar vertebrae curve anteriorly or posteriorly in the L5-S1 facet syndrome?
anteriorly - toward the front.
What does L5-S1 stand for?
5th lumber vertebrae and first sacral vertebra.
