The traps that quietly cost points

These are the point-loss patterns iHuman never tells you about. We map every one for this case.

Straight leg raise test: positive at 30-60° reproducing radicular pain = L4-S1 root involvement
Red flags for imaging: bowel/bladder dysfunction (cauda equina), progressive neurological deficit, fever, cancer history
Conservative management first: NSAIDs + activity modification — avoid bed rest > 2 days
MRI is imaging of choice if red flags present or symptoms persist > 6 weeks
Cauda equina syndrome (saddle anesthesia, urinary retention) = surgical emergency
