Question: I'm wondering if a dr!. would be able to!.!.!. !?
this is a shot in the dark but here it goes, i am wondering if anyone thinks or knows if a dr!. (neurologist) would be able to tell if slipped disks were caused by an injury, like an auto accident, or if the disk is injured due to some other sort of problem like a disease by looking at MRI pictures or if there are other test that that s/he would need to do before knowing the cause!? i have three in my neck, three in the thoracic part and one in the lumbar!. the first six are not as severe but the L5/S1 is blown out 100%!. i had an MRI two years before and i was told my spine looked perfect!. i can't imagine a disease could cause such severe injury in just two years!. figures, i always think of questions after i leave the office and my next apt!. isn't until the 22nd!. so, just wondering if anyone has any experience with this sort of thing!. thank you!.

Answers:
Have you had an injury to you spine or been in an auto acident in the two years since you last MRI!? I have a similar problem with my spine and my dr!. said it's due to a deterioration over a long period of time!. But if you had an MRI 2 years ago and no abnormalities showed up, then it's something that happened in the last 2 years!. A dr!. won't know unless you give a history of any injuries that happened in the last 2 years!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
