You might need surgery for focal left foraminal disc protrusion that contacts the exiting left L4 nerve root if the protrusion is affecting your quality of life. This type of surgery is most often accomplished via a very small incision.
No
L4 is usually the size of the racquet handle. L3 is a standard 4 3/8 inch handle, while L4 is the larger 4 1/2 inch handle.
whatis anterior subluxation on L5 on S1 mean?
i dont now
what does bilateral facet arthropathy mean
A level of severity of a certain type of arthrits in the spine or back
The largest intervertebral disc is typically found between the fourth and fifth lumbar vertebrae in the lower back. This disc is known as the L4-L5 disc and tends to be larger due to the increased weight-bearing and range of motion demands placed on the lower back.
in adults its done at L3 and L4 or L4 and L5

The L4 and L5 levels refer to the fourth and fifth lumbar vertebrae in the lower back. "Flattening of the posterior margin of the disc" suggests that the intervertebral disc between these vertebrae is losing its normal curve, which can indicate degeneration or herniation. This flattening may lead to increased pressure on surrounding structures, potentially causing pain or discomfort. It often signifies a need for further evaluation or treatment to address any related symptoms.
