Answer:

Answer: B) Straight-leg raise.

Explanation:

The straight-leg raise entails having the patient lying down on his back while the medical examiner lifts the leg.

If the patient has sharp pain which spreads from the back down to the leg in an S1 or L5 distribution, it shows that he suffers from a herniated disc.
