The nerve pathway travels down from the s1 spine. If the nerve root at the s1 is impinged or herniated, symptoms of sciatica can appear.

What does paracentral disc herniation at the L5-S1 level causing mass effect upon the left S1 nerve root mean?

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?!


Where do you feel pain when the S1 nerve is pinched?

When the S1 nerve is pinched, pain can be felt in the lower back, buttocks, back of the thigh, calf, outside edge of the foot, and in some cases, the little toe. This type of pain is known as sciatica and can be sharp, shooting, or burning in nature.


What is evidence of impression on the L5 and S1 nerve root on the right ay the L5 S1 level?

Evidence of impression on the L5 and S1 nerve root on the right at the L5-S1 level typically includes imaging findings such as a herniated disc, foraminal stenosis, or a mass effect from adjacent structures. On MRI, this may present as displacement or compression of the nerve roots, along with associated edema or inflammation in the surrounding tissues. Clinical symptoms may also be evident, including radicular pain, numbness, or weakness in the lower extremity corresponding to the affected nerve roots.
