R Upper Leg, Hamstring Pain

2014-11-11 – 2015-01-01

Grade: 3

While favoring my hurt ankle, I stumbled forward and had a slight pull in my hamstring. It was sharp pain but mostly only hurts when flexed the right way.

It slowly got better. Though things felt like a pulled hamstring, the medical diagnosis was Lumbar Radiculopathy. Making this resolution entry after the fact, I guess my body re-routed the nerves after my disc herniation and a piece breaking off between L4/L5, then getting lodged in my spinal column squeezing the spinal cord.
