I have a bulging disc and have had it for eight months, it is on the L4 L5 and also have a slipped spine on the L4, the doc will be doing surgery to get the L4 nerve out of the way since it is being compressed between bone and the disc. This is on my left side and have noticed since this happen that on the same side below my shin there appears to be a dent that goes across the bone. it is quite significant and I did not mention this to him.....should I be concerned?
