What Does this MRI Result Mean?
Hi
My name is Sam and I would kindly like to ask, if you wouldn`t mind to take a few minutes to read this email please.
I am suffering below stated medical conditions with every day’s constant pain.
I just wonder if you would kindly email me back from your professional perspective: - Is medical conditions described below curable by administering Ayuverdic treatments, supplements etc.
o If so how long does it take to be cured? {I am aware that all depends on individual’s case and personal circumstances, but on average scale what would be the time period?
o What herbal supplements needs to be used?
o What treatment needs to be administered?
Thanks in advance!
Regards,
Spasoja Rajnovic

Welcome to health care magic.
1.After going through the history, its more suggestive of bony changes that to post traumatic, degenerative, inflammatory changes.
2.The ankle shows the similar changes after trauma.
3.The knee shows the degenerative changes with inflammation in the meniscus.
4.Spine shows degenerative disc diseases at different levels of the spine with disc causing pressure effect on nerve and spinal chord.
5.It could be weight bearing hard working nature, you need to reduce your work a bit and get some relaxed work that way things may get settled, that is the only option i could think of. Good luck.
Hope i have answered your query.
Any thing to ask do not hesitate
