Spinal stenosis and its treatment explained by Dr. Peter Derman
Ғылым және технология
Spinal stenosis means pinching of the nerves in the neck or back. It can produce pain, numbness, and even weakness in the arms or legs. In this video, I discuss the causes, symptoms, diagnosis, and treatment of spinal stenosis. Terms like spondylolisthesis, disc herniation, laminectomy, microdiscectomy, decompression, fusion and endoscopy are explained. Tune in for a high-yield primer on this common spinal condition.
Let me know if you have questions or if there are other spine-related topics you'd like me to cover.

Haha! Noah never ceases to amaze me. I’m so proud of my little guy. And yes, he does like chocolate milk! 😂 Sorry to hear you’re struggling. If you can’t wait 27 years for Noah to finish his medical training, we’d be happy to help you sooner at Texas Back Institute if you don’t mind settling for me instead. Feel free to call 972-608-5000 to discuss setting up a consultation.

I’m sorry to hear that you are struggling. Surgery may be considered if other modalities (e.g., non-narcotic medications, PT, and injections) fail to provide substantial relief of sufficient duration. In most cases, it is a quality of life determination that is ultimately up to the patient to decide.
Doc please help me. I need your advise. My current situation cervical spine radiculopathy. Both arms has tingling feeling. Surgery it not my option coz i cant afford it. Maybe your advise could help me, please🙏
