Suggest Treatment For Severe Neck Pain
Question: My neck has fused it self. I am in a lot of pain because YYYY@YYYY this after several falls. Not sure what the answer is?
Brief Answer:
Needs surgical decompression.
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for posting your query.
At your age it is normal to have such degenerative changes in the spine. The fusion causes compression of the nerve roots causing the pain. This needs a surgical decompression of the nerves. Medicines and physiotherapy are not likely to help you much. You need to consult a spine surgeon for this.
I hope this answers your query.
In case you have additional questions or doubts, you can forward them to me, and I shall be glad to help you out.
Wishing you good health.
Regards.
