I have mild diffuse disc bulge @ L1-L2, moderate disc space narrowing @ L3-L4, broad based central & biforaminal disc protrusion @ L2-L3, broad based disc bulge into the foramina @ L3-L4, extensive broad based disc bulge with hypertrophic face arthropathy & ligamentum buckling @ L4-L5, and moderate facet arthropathy @ L5-S1. Could this cause cramping of the tibialis anterior? Thank you very much.
Hello, The tibialis anterior is supplied by the perineal nerve arising from L4 and L5 levels. The report states that there are multilevel degenerative changes in your lumbosacral spine with subsequent nerves involvement, so, pinched nerve may cause cramps. Other possible causes should be considered also and these include blood circulation problems, deny Chat Doctor. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
