Hi,
Thanks for writing in.

Sacrailsation of L5 veertebra refers to a normal variation of the last lumbar segment of your backbone. It is by birth and usually has no clinical importance to it. It is not related to your urinary problem. Few people can get lower back pain due to this but this point is debatable. You need no worry about it because this condition is very is common in the general population.
