A member asked:
Can left 3 mm disk protrusion and annular tear, cause rt buttock pain for past 2 yrs?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Doubtful: If the disk protrusion is on the left side and your pain is on the right side, then it is unlikely that that particular disk protrusion is the cause of your right sided pain. If you do not have any right sided disc protrusion, then your pain may arise from another cause such as your si joint, facet joint, a trigger point, etc. See your physician for further discussion.
