EMG findings in discal herniation typically show abnormal patterns indicative of muscle weakness.

EMG findings in discal herniation typically show abnormal patterns indicative of muscle weakness.

Correct answer is False: Electromyography (EMG) in discal herniation is primarily focused on assessing nerve root irritation rather than muscle weakness. EMG findings related to discal herniation may include changes in nerve conduction velocity and electromyographic abnormalities in muscles innervated by the affected nerve roots. However, the primary emphasis is on nerve dysfunction rather than direct muscle weakness.
