Prolapsed Discs & Sciatica From Lifting at Work
Mr R worked at a car parts factory in Coventry where his main role was the constant lifting of materials up to and and above head height, and often weighing up to 25kg. Over time he began to develop back pain, as well as shooting pains and tingling sensations running down in his leg, particularly at night. Mr R was forced to take time off work due to his condition, and saw his GP, who referred him for an MRI scan.
He was subsequently told by the orthopaedic consultant at the hospital that a disc had ruptured in his lower back, and was pressing on the sciatic nerve, in other words, he had a prolapsed disc and this was causing sciatica. He later required a micro-discectomy surgical operation, which was fortunately successful, and was able to return to lighter duties at the car parts factory where he worked a few weeks later.
