Lumbar disc herniation with radiculopathy - a case study
“Sally”, was a 23-year-old Swedish backpacker who presented with a three-month history of low back pain and more recently right leg pain. Sally was referred from the Emergency department to Outpatient Physiotherapy within a large public hospital. She had presented to ED on six occasions since May for worsening pain.
Mechanism of injury
Sally couldn't recall a single event relating to the onset of her back pain. In the weeks prior to developing back pain she had been working casually as a waitress and did find bending over tables a strain. The pain began in her lower back quite centrally and with time is starting radiating straight down the back of her right thigh and into her calf, stopping at the ankle.
