Coronal Lift

Question: Problems with Cervical Spine and Lumbo Sacral Spine? I have the following condition and have been advised to have a neuro surgery. My question:Is there an alternative treatment to having a surgery?. 5 years ago I had an injury on the thigh of the right leg through playing football. It appeared like a muscle strain. The pain continued to resurface each time I run or kicked a ball sometimes at the front of the thigh and sometimes at the back i.e. at the buttock. Also 4 years ago I lifted something heavy and started getting pain on my shoulder. This pain has also continued ever since. About a year ago something new developed on the same arm - I started losing control and grip. Also the speed of my handwriting got reduced to almost 20% of what it used to be. I also struggle to shave etc or pick something out of my pockets. On the leg also something new developed abut 6 months ago - I started limping on the same leg!. I can run but find it difficult to walk as the toes don’t flex or bend naturally as they should be. I do not know if the leg and arm injuries are related to limping and losing control. I used to work long hours every day for the past 16 years for an average of 9 hours a day on the computer as I am an accountant by profession. I Would like your opinion if treatment is available for this and how to proceed further. I’ve had an MRI taken and it shows there are problems on the nerves. The MRI reports are as follows: Lumbo Sacral Spine MRI Axial T1W(SE) & T2W(FSE) Saggital T1W(SE) & T2W(FSE) Evidence of sequestrated diffuse bulging disc prolapse L5S1 indenting the theca and compressing both exit nerve roots. Evidence of diffuse bulging disc L4L5 indenting the theca and abutting both exit nerve roots. Vertebrae appear normal. Marrow signal is preserved. Conus and cauda equine appear normal. No abnormal pre-para spinal soft tissues noted. Cervical Spine MRI Axial T1W(SE) & T2*W(GRE) Saggital T1W(SE) & T2W(FSE) Focal median disc bulge at C5/6 is noted. Cervical cord shows signal with no e/o any focal lesion Vertebra appear normal No abnormal pre-para spinal soft tissues noted IMP: Disk bulge C5/6 Brain (General) MRI Axials T1(SE/FSE), T2(FSE) Saggital T1(SE) Coronal FLAIR Brain parenchyma appears normal. Normal grey – white matter differentiation is preserved. Third and lateral ventricles are normal in size. No e/o midline shift seen. Basal cisterns are well defined. Posterior fossa, cerebellum and brain stem appear normal.

Answer: Definitely consult a good Chiropractor. I've had back problems since I was a teenager, but after going to a good Chiropractor for a while, they basically went away for a long time (until I severely aggravated it again years later). The Chiropractor I'm seeing right now also has a treatment called the Graston Technique that helps to break up scar tissue and let your body heal from it... that helped fix a problem in my hip, foot, and hand that was in the tissue itself (as opposed to the joints). I couldn't say enough good things about the good Chiropractors I've found, but unfortunately there are some "not so good" Chiropractors I've come across that don't do much other than expensive massages. Good luck and I hope I helped!
