Hi,I am Dr. Gopal Goel (Orthopaedic Surgeon). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
What Causes Severe Pain Down To Legs And Ankles With Nausea?
I have lumbar spine facet joint issues, 2 slight disc bulges at L4/L5 with disc degeneration after an MVA 2012. Last 5 weeks have had worsening pain down legs to ankle, with nausea and now last few days feeling light headed with the bad pain. What could be wrong?
hello, I have studied your case. i think that pain in leg is due to compression of nerve. Nausea can be due to stomach issue but not due to spine. I would suggest you to get fresh Mri and see if there is progression of the disease, in that case you need to take advise of spine surgeon. If there is significant compression then surgery is only option. meanwhile take Pregabalin M one tablet at night time .
