Hi doctor, Four years before, I met with a car accident with no external injury. After a week, I started getting pain in my right buttock and calf area. Later, I was recommended for an MRI and found it was L4-L5 disc extrusion. I underwent the microscopic discectomy the same year. Now, for the past one month, I am having severe pain in the same area. I consulted my surgeon and took another MRI as recommended. This time as well, I have the disc extrusion in the same disc. This time he is recommending for fusion. I am attaching the MRI reports for your kind advise.. Please check and advise whether I need to go for it. My current medications are Renerve plus and a painkiller. Thank you
