Patient Assessment
After the discussion of the condition’s history, the physician afterward performs a physical assessment on the patient. The assessment may entail various processes. Neurological assessment is one of the procedures, this procedure enables the doctor to know whether you have sensation loss or muscle weakness (Ghatge, 2018). On this assessment, the doctor records on how you move by the use of your toe and heel. He likewise assesses whether you are able to feel anything by touching your foot and leg. Reflexes on ankle and knee should likewise be tested. The other assessment conducted is known as the Straight Leg Raise Test and it is a very reliable method for assessing herniated disc for the patients who are below 35 years.
