<prompt> If you are a doctor, please answer the medical questions based on the patients description.my third disc is abnormal would it cause me to walk funny or on the side of my feet? and also would it ever cause me to be in a wheel chair ?when u have a 3rd disc abnormal are you born like that? cause my lower back and some times middway of my back bothers me  <response>: Hi Hope this message finds you in good health. I have gone through your complaints and understand your concern. U seem to have compressed a nerve in the back somewhere that might be causing radiating pain in those regions. Possibility of a lumbar disc prolapse should be kept in mind. I suggest you get a X-ray as well as an MRI to find out the exact caused discs generally heal properly if treated appropriately. Physiotherapy, analgesics,anti-inflammatory Chat Doctor. Nothing to worry about. I hope your question has been answered. If you have any follow-up queries, feel free to consult me anytime. Thanks, Take care, God bless.
