A member asked:

Returning left leg pain 5 days after l4-5 discectomy for a bulging disc, what to do?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

See your surgeon: Let your surgeon know what is going on. They would be in the best position to provide advice and determine if a new imaging study such as a MRI of the lumbar spine with and without contrast to rule out a recurrent disc herniation is warranted.
