needed for the psyche. Based on the progress report dated 03/03/16, the IW’s medications include Lidoderm patch, Neurontin, Prilosec, Flovent, Fentanyl patch, oxycodone and Baclofen. MRI of the lumbar spine dated 07/08/10 revealed relatively mild degenerative spondylosis and no evidence

Paytm and get relief from it. Cervical pain can results from various reasons like neck strain or injury, a herniated disc, a pinched nerve or any other degenerative disc disease. Paytm offers a versatile range of cervical supports, neck pillow, cervical pillow and other aid that will help in reducing the pain. They

Research Paper: Neck Pain What is Neck Pain? Parts of the Cervical Vertebrae Cervical Vertebrae is composed of 7 discs ranging from C1 to C7. It is in charge of protecting the spinal cord while supporting the weight of the head that averages at about 10 pounds. The vertebrae is also tasked with enabling the head to rotate and move. The intervertebral discs in between the vertebrae are said to be gel like and allows the parts of vertebrae to move past each other. They also act as shock absorbers

numbness of the left foot and weakness in the left leg. Upon examination, the patient has spasm over the left calf/foot with weakness of the left anterior tibialis and peroneal muscles. MRI of the lumbar spine obtained on 09/23/16 showed L4-5 mild disc degeneration

CBD May Prevent Intervertebral Disc Degeneration Intervertebral disc degeneration is a common disorder that is characterized by the progressive degeneration of the intervertebral discs, resulting in deformity and dysfunction. The structural and functional integrity of the spine in essence is compromised due to several issues, including inflammation, diminished oxygen, and deficiency of essential water and sugars, which are key components of intervertebral discs balance and proper function. In the

symptom of a medical condition. It is not a disease. The symptoms of sciatica are: • Pain in the lower back and in the back of the leg (usually just in one leg) • The pain increases while sitting • Burning feeling down the leg • Numbness in the leg or the foot • Inability to move the leg or the foot • Inability to stand or walk for a long period Causes of sciatica: • Ruptured disc – also called slipped disk, pinched nerve or medically known as lumbar herniated disc. •

Introduction Low-back pain is currently a major public health and economic problem particularly in developed countries (Maniadakis and Gray 2000). It is estimated that 70 to 85% of UK citizens have experienced back pain in their lives, either persistent or recurrent and that the annual healthcare cost of back pain is approximately £1632 million (Andersson 1999). Of the 70-85% of patients with low-back pain, 4.4% suffer from sciatica, 3.1% male and 1.3% female (Heliövaara 1989). Evidence suggests

Spinal discs sit atop vertebrae and may be removed for decompression. Decompression involves relieving pressure placed on the spinal cord by bone or a herniated disc. A MISS discectomy or microdiscectomy will involve the use of a smaller incision (1.5 inches wide) in addition to magnification tools. A discectomy using MISS will result

more likely. Being overweight will also strain the muscle of the back and put undue stress on the spine. Diseases such as arthritis and cancer can also cause back pain. Even those with psychological issues such as depression and anxiety appear to be more likely to suffer from back pain. Smoking reduces the amount of nutrients that supply the discs in spine, making degenerative disc disease more

Stem Cell Injections for the Degenerative Joint By Richard Sayegh Mar 17, 2014 In new research, doctors note that Mesenchymal stem cells are known to have a potential for articular cartilage regeneration. Now doctors have found that for the treatment of generalized cartilage loss in osteoarthritis, an alternative delivery strategy would be more appropriate and that is injection therapy. For those of us affected by osteoarthritis we know the impact it can have on quality of life. The research surrounding
