Hello Doctor, My uncle suffered Tingling and go blank sensation both leg and hand from past one month.
We did MRI scanning , report says below points
1) Straightening of cervical spine is noted - due to muscle spasm.
2) Ventral Ridging of the sac is seen extending from C3-4 to C6-7 level due to posterior protruding disc.
3) All intervertebral disc space are desiccated to variable extents
4)C5-6 and C6-7 level - moderate to severe dehydrated change with reduced disc height.
5) Posterior disc bulge with posterocentral disc protrusion along with disc osteophytes complex causing compression of anterior thecal sac with moderate narrowing bilateral neural foramina resulting compression over bilateral exiting nerve roots with secondary cervical canal stenosis and compressive myelopathy changes.

He has an cervical canal stenosis, that means he has a compression in his spinal cord because of degeneration. Also, he has a lumbar disc pathology. Consult a neurosurgeon for an detailed examination and evaluation. He should feel better.
