X-ray cannot determine whether you have a disc prolapse, though as far as your symptoms go, leg pain is definitely Associates with a disc related problem in your back. But at the same it does not correlate with the hand pain that you suffer from. I would advise an MRI of the L/S region with screening of e Cervical spine. Till then this benefit from Physiotherapy sessions involving SWD/TENS and back strengthening exercises. If the leg pain is kind of pins and needles or numbness type in character, take Tab.Pregalin 75 at bed time for 10 days.
