Back pain everyday
I have pars fracture. Recent xrays say defect in bilateral pars L5. Mild levoscoliosis is seen. I have back pain along with weak feeling in legs and tingling feeling in my hamstring specially on right side. I am advised to do an MRI by the doctor. Should I be looking to take leave and have rest because sitting in office continuosly adds to the pain. Now a days slight bending only starts problems which was not there previously. Please advice.

You need to consult a spine specialist orthopaedic surgeon. Looking at the symptoms- proper strengthening exercises and posture care should take care of majority of symptoms. Pars fracture may be an incidental finding. Flexion extension X-ray views will be helpful for determining instability
