Brief Medical History Overview
MRI and physio says steroid injection....
Wrote on here a while ago about back pain at l3/4 level, with numb toe and got some good advice to go for
MRI and physio, had MRI which says; widespread degenreative disc disease in 3 lower lumbar discs with reasonable preservation of the disc signal elsewhere in spine. Focal and plate degenreative changes in lower 3, small braod based degenerative disc bulges that no not encroach on the spinal canal. No evidence of focal nerve root impingement & moderate
facet joint degeneration noted.
So...had physio with exercises to strengthen core, but hasnt made a scrap of difference to the pain
and my big toe is numb, yet MRI says no nerve impingement.
So..I want to avoid a steroid injection at all costs and wondered if anyone had a good suggestion??
