My mother's MRI (Feb) shows: Mild L5–S1 retrolisthesis, Modic changes, L3–4 left foraminal disc protrusion, and L4–5/L5–S1 disc prolapse with caudal migration causing severe foraminal stenosis.
She has pain mainly in the buttock radiating to the leg. She is currently taking Nervite Plus, Gabapin-NT, and Vitamin D3 60,000 IU. The pain has reduced slightly but is still persistent.
Would you recommend any change in medications (add, reduce, or switch), or any specific physiotherapy/exercises that are safe and effective?
Any lab tests to do for check-up the parameters???Please tell me best possible way...
My brother, Pawan Kumar Sharma, is facing a severe recurrence of his lumbar condition. In 2021, he underwent an L5-S1 discectomy. A July 2026 MRI now shows a significant disc extrusion at the same level. His condition is critical—he is currently unable to walk. Given this complex revision case, we are seeking the highest standard of care to restore his mobility.
We request your expert guidance on:
Recommended surgical approach (Revision Microdiscectomy vs. Instrumental Fusion).
Availability of advanced navigation or robotic technology for revision.
Estimated timeline and cost for urgent admission.
We are ready to travel for the right treatment. Attached are his 2021 surgical records and 2026 MRI report. We look forward to your urgent response.
My vitamin D deficiency has been corrected after 3 months of Uprise D3, but I still have calf pain and tingling sometimes although it's less than before.
Which routine tests should I get now? Should I check serum magnesium, vitamin B12, calcium, potassium, thyroid (TSH), or any other tests?
28-year-old male with right shoulder pain after a forceful volleyball serve 1.5 months ago. Symptoms initially improved after I stopped playing sports but flared up again 7–8 days ago. Orthopedic examination diagnosed rotator cuff strain with a positive impingement test. Current symptoms include burning/crawling sensation around the right shoulder blade, occasional tingling, and stiffness around the right shoulder and upper trapezius region. A neurologist documented a right shoulder injury and referred me back to orthopedics. I have not had an MRI or started physiotherapy yet. Given the burning/tingling symptoms, I'm unsure whether I should continue orthopedic treatment or whether this could be a neurological issue.
