Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I had a two level lumbar fusion and its been about 3 months since surgery. Just recently both my hands feel a bit weak, tingly, and swollen. This occurs especially when I lie down on my left side. I just want to make sure it has nothing to do with a possible spinal chord compression. I don't have any BP/Heart problems either. What do you think it could be?
HI Well come to HCM With the history or spinal cord surgery one need to go for physiotherapy this is very important to over come the sequelea and this is the best option can be tried, medicine has got no role, hope this helps
