Question 2

My brother has been diagnosed with disc desiccation changes and an annular tear at L4-L5. The doctor recommended surgery but we're unsure if it's the best option. Could you explain what this condition means and whether surgery is really necessary? We're quite worried and would appreciate your advice on alternative treatments or what to expect if he goes through with the operation

Accepted Answer

Discectomy is advised.

Question 3

I've been dealing with numbness in my little and ring fingers on both hands. Initially, doctors thought it was CTS and put me on gabapentin, but an MRI recently showed nerve compression at C5-C6-C7 levels, and they're suggesting surgery. Are there any non-surgical options I could explore first? Also, could you explain the possible risks or complications if I do go ahead with the spine surgery? You can email me at mr.venkateshprasad@gmail.com if that's easier.

Accepted Answer

Consultation with a neurosurgeon/ neurologist is advisable
