Polyradiculopathy
Hello dr.
My husband is suffering from spondylitis and polyradiculopathy. He feels sharp pain and tingling in the left chest and sometimes arm.Echo and ECG are normal. What precautions should be taken? How long does it last??kindly reply..
The sharp shooting pain is because of irritation of those nerve roots either due to compression or many other reasons at the exit / entry points of the spinal cord .
Information about Your husbands weight would help .
But he needs to be checked before I explain the precautions.
