What is waist and leg soreness?
Lower back pain accompanied by leg pain and numbness, determine whether the above symptoms are lumbar disc herniation. In addition to CT and MPI, it is also necessary to combine with the doctor's clinical examination. Sometimes, mild disc herniation can also cause the above symptoms, but it can be improved after conservative treatment. Simple lumbar sprain does not have symptoms of lower limbs. In addition, lower limb symptoms caused by lumbar problems are mostly below the knee joint, with pain or (and) numbness, which is one of the common symptoms of lower back pain and leg pain.
The doctor suggests that if you have lower back pain and leg pain, you should first consider whether it is a lumbar disc herniation:
Lumbar disc herniation is one of the more common diseases, mainly due to the degenerative changes in various parts of the lumbar disc, especially the nucleus pulposus. Under the action of external factors, the fibrous ring of the disc ruptures, and the nucleus pulposus tissue protrudes from the ruptured area behind or into the spinal canal, causing adjacent spinal nerve roots to be stimulated or compressed, resulting in a series of clinical symptoms such as lower back pain, numbness and pain in one or both lower limbs.
