Anterior lumbar disc prolapse

One of my clients today has a history of emergency surgery for an anterior prolapse of a hte L4/5 disc. At the time he experienced sudden onset of back pain with bending resulting in a fixed flexion posture. He presented today with a reoccurence of his lumbar back pain following hedge trimming but no postural deformity this time. I am concerned that this may be a reoccurence of his anterior disc problem at a L3/4. Does anyone have any previous experience of this condition?
