My uncle is 50 and has lumbar spondylosis at L4 L5. He's been feeling numbness in his thumb, index, and middle fingers, especially when lying down. Is there a way to treat this without surgery?

I've been having this weird tickling and tingling feeling in my lower belly and left leg at night for about a year now. It seems to come and go in waves. I also mentioned it to my doctor once and they said something about OLD. I'm starting to get a little worried. Do you have any idea what's going on? Could it be related to the OLD or something else entirely?
