case_images: A physical examination was performed through the "pain leg" test, and the patient had pain in both legs upon reaching an angle above 30 degrees. Before visiting the clinic, he had been treated in Germany with physiotherapy and supplements, which had proved ineffective. An MRI discovered an L4-L5 herniated disc (Figure 1).
case_images: An MRI (sagittal plane) was performed seven months later without any surgical intervention; with conservative treatment, the herniation was gone (Date: 03.08.2023).
