Positional changes in lumbar disc herniation during standing

2020 Research: MRI: POSITIONAL CHANGES IN LUMBAR DISC HERNIATION DURING STANDING: Lumbar herniated discs increased in size during standing. Increased nerve root compression grades for paracentral herniated discs were found during standing. (If you have had an MRI done lying down, understand that the disc herniation increases while standing !!!)
