One of my relative was in an accident recently & she has been told that spinal cord disc has moved. Also she has something near her toes like redpimples, doctor said something about blood vessels and she said her leg feels numb too. We dont have the details yet.

Is this something related to Disc Hernia? Any help is appreciated.

Thanks.

hi Selvi,

It is related to Disc Hernia. Usually, if it mild, a little physio therapy, bed rest will help. the red pimples like are also an indication..and the numbness could be because of nerve compression due to the prolapse of the cord. is she mobile are finding it difficult to walk.

First, find out which disc has moved. follow the doctors prescription.

Dear,

I am on 4 months medical leave due to degeneration. Mine is affecting C3,C4,C5 and C6. It is on my neck. Due to this my left hand is numb. I could not drive, bend down(sudden blackout). Even steroid is not helping me to relieve the pain.

At the moment only physio, neurotin, neurofen and methycobal are halping me to manage the pain. All this are caused by working with computer. And i am in my late 30s. At times, i feel i want to chop off my neck and hand...
