L5-S1 nerve compression gives tingling and numbness in leg. Depending on the severity of symptoms treatment plan changes. If there is bowel and bladder involvement then surgery is advised for which registered orthopaedic surgeon opinion should be availed. But otherwise conservative management can be done.
Next Steps
Kindly visit nearby physiotherapist or orthopaedic surgeon for detailed evaluation and designing the treatment plan.
