Annular Tear
I had an MRI done last week to try and figure out what is wrong with my back. I've been having pain and tingling radiating down my leg. I got the results this morning.
Apparently I have a tear in the Annulus (the fibers that hold the disc in place) and the disc is bulging out and pinching my nerve. I thought this diagram was very helpful. What a pain!

That's to bad! Does this mean you will have to do your physical therapy exercises forever? Megan
I don't really know what it means yet- I go to physical therapy on tuesday to talk to them about it.
