Prolapsed disc: I would advise you to seek and orthopedist on Health Tap prime where you could possibly download a picture of your MRI and do a virtual visit /exam. Alternatively you could visit and orthopedist for an in person assessment. Good luck

Need Evaluation: A thorough physical examination with radiological evaluation (eg. MRI) should indicate the stability of your disc in your back. A thorough neurological exam would be helpful.
