Although LBP's exact origin remains unknown, it understood that degenerative damage to intervertebral disk (IVD) plays a central role in pathogenic mechanism leading pain.

Plain X-ray lumbosacral spine each anteroposterior, lateral view stress views.
 Results: 15 male (53.5%) eight females (36.3%). site prolapsed L4-L5 (58%); next L5-S1 (38%), backache presenting It presents all 50 (100%). Sciatica 45 (90%), 13 radiation right leg, whereas 26 have left leg six bilateral radiation, (90%) total complaint recovered,36 (86.7%) real compliant sciatica improved, paresthesia represented 32 (64%) (87.5%) them recovered, 16 (32%) had motor weakness 12 (75%) recovered. Conclusion: Lumbar may be associated with more rapid initial recovery sciatica; good outcomes microdiscectomy.
