Would I have felt a sharp pain instantly when my S1 disc slipped?
Posted , 3 users are following.
I have suffered mild sciatic pain for a year or two, but it was always tolerable. A few months I was doing repetitive lifting, a few hours after I felt my lower back had tightened, the doctor said I had back spams and it would just take some rest. A few months later I was laying in bed and whatever way I moved I felt the sharpest most intense pain in my lower back, butt and all down my left leg, easily the worst pain I've ever experienced with my back, is it likely that this was when the disc herniated?

Twisted and had a sharp pain in back followed by sciatica down left side and in both but cheeks.
It took 5 years of suffering until they gave me an MRI and discovered I had a prolapsed disc.
I had a micro- discectomy which worked for 3 or 4 months ,then symptoms came back,so on 22/10/2014
I had a spinal fusion on L4L5 disc still doing physio today but feeling reel good.
ask doc for MRI I hope you find problem,
All the best steve.
