A member asked:
2004 mri said central annular tear l4-5 with disk protrusion 8 weeks ago left leg foot numb tingling what is happening?

Probable progression: Please follow up with you PCP for appropriate referral. If you already have Lumbar disk disease and have developed numbness/tingling in foot it is most likely a progression and needs appropriate care.
