Abdominal pain in lumbar disc bulge.
I have l3-l4 and l5-s1 disc bulge with foraminal narrowing. I feel pain in the inguinal area and the right side lower abdomen radiating to back. My CT scan reports are normal. Are the abdominal and inguinal pain due to disc bulge only ?

ct scans will not be of much help in your case, if previous mri has been done more than 6 months ago then get a repeat mri LS spine with whole spine screening and look for changes which might have aggravated compared to previous mri, visit nearet orthopaedic surgeon
