Clinical application of this material directs care to reduce c fiber bombardment of the cord. Basically, increasing movement to tolerance, increased water intake, anti-inflammatory diet, mindfulness training, etc.
@@NeuroDocUniverse there's little to no evidence that anything can be done dietarily to effect central sensitization. This has to be for the obese, high impulse no self control westernized patient. Responses like this are undeniably the reason people don't get better. Durrrrr , gluten free blue berry vegan diet with yoga. Kick rocks you ignoramous.
A Super Talented instructor! Thank you for these. Although 11 years old, still so relevant and remains unchanged! Looking forward to your short reviews which are golden nuggets.
Thank you for this! Has anything new been discovered in the past 11 years? In particular, reflexive shunt stability and the role of the intrinsic spinal muscles role in body balance. This information should have already produced foundational change in the entire golf and tennis teaching industries but alas, it has not. Again, thank you for this game changing information.
Thanks for the kind word and your question. There are new case studies and partial reviews of the literature, but no new information regarding the role of the cerebellum in stabilizing the spine.
Excellent. My friend developed "progressive bulbar paralysis " after a polio vaxxine in 1959 and was in an iron lung for awhile. Luckily, he recovered 95%.
Can you provide links to any academic publications on these, or point me in the direction of any articles or authors? I have institution access to journals. Thanks!
Most people have hypomobilty have this high glutimate in the brain and most have OCD before anxiety because if this low glutimate diet meditation etc exercise can cure this which I believe takes few years also linked to Asperger's done a lot if reasearch I hope this helps others cause the pain is hell
My appreciation goes to dr EHIMARE on RU-vid channel because i thought the America doctor said there’s no cure for ALS, but now my dad And siblings are been cured permanently after the herbal medication from (#DREHIMARE ON RU-vid).i urge you all to get in touch with dr Ehimare.
All thanks to DR EHIMARE who was able to reverse and cure my mum and my younger brother from this deadly Als diseases, and i and my family will continue to recommend your treatments to other patients Visit DR.EHIMARE ON HIS RU-vid CHANNEL..
Thank you for explaining. I do have some confused questions. Would you please clarify these for me? a. I understand that the lateral herniation you said is lateral to the nerve root. May I ask what kind of nerve root is? Is that existing nerve root or traversing nerve root? Based on the figure, I assume that this is the traversing nerve root as it is mostly affected by herniated discs. Is that right? b. What confused me is the type of herniation (posterolateral herniation, lateral herniation, central herniation) applying to this case? Again, based on the figure , can I assume that it is the posterolateral herniation? Is that correct? If it is, would that apply to lateral herniation as well? As the posterolateral herniation affects the traversing nerve root and lateral herniation affects existing nerve root. In order to clarify my question, let me give an example here. Let take L4-L5. Left herniation. - If the question asks for the posterolateral herniation, which side a patient can be listed? how can I answer this question? Thank you for your time!
Thanks for your question! a) The herniation can compress the spinal nerve root at and/or medial to the IVF b) In the case of a posterolateral disc herniation on the left side of the patient, the patient's antalgic position would be leaning to right. The right postural lean would slightly draw the spinal nerve root away from the herniation. Please send word if you need any further clarification!
@@NeuroDocUniverse Thank you for your clarification. a. Per your answer, I understand your point is the traversing nerve root as the existing nerve root is located a bit lateral to the IVF. Am I correct? b. So, how can I apply this theory into the type of herniation because the doctor usually says this is the lateral/posterolat/central herniation? We already mentioned the antalgic lean for the posterolateral herniation. How about the antalgic position for lateral herniation for lateral and central herniation? Can you explain in these types? Thank you for your time.
@@minhngo3162 thanks for your follow-up questions. a) The posterolateral or lateral disc herniation is actually medial to the IVF and may affect the sensory rootlet before actually compressing the mixed spinal nerve root. I'm unable to add a picture to this reply, so I recommend taking a look at an anatomical drawing or dissection for reference. b) The terms "lateral/posterolateral herniation" are often used interchangeably. A central herniation, however, is located in the midline of the posterior aspect of the disc and vertebral bodies. Depending on where the ventral herniation is located, a person may have cord compression symtoms (cervical and thoracic) or compression of the cauda equina (caudally from L2). In the case of a central disc herniation a person may present with back pain and no nerve root symptoms. Please send a follow-up note if you have more questions!
Doc do you believe nerve entrapment can be healed naturally if disc is not herniatied but you had a pinched nerve with relief from all symptoms I slept wrong one night had some trouble for a bit have an mri coming soon just to make sure of no herniation, chiropractor told me just a pinched nerve
II cannot make a call in your case since I have not examined you or seen your films. However, impingement of a cervical nerve root can come from a number of issues. Some of the causes can resolve on their own (chemical radiculitis, edema, etc.) and some causes are unlikely to resolve on their own (ligamentum flavum hypertrophy, osseous foraminal encroachment, etc).
Vielen Dank für Ihre Frage! Wenn die Nozizeption über einen längeren Zeitraum andauert, kann das zentrale Nervensystem ohne äußeren Reiz Schmerzen wahrnehmen. Dies kann durch einen Zustand verursacht werden, der als zentrale Sensibilisierung bekannt ist.
Good video, however The corticospinal tract carries motor signals from the primary motor cortex in the brain, down the spinal cord, to the muscles of the trunk and limbs. ... The corticobulbar tract carries efferent, motor, information from the primary motor cortex to the muscles of the face, head and neck. They are not the same thing.
That is brilliant. Using MRS for both Spinal Nerve Root & The Peripheral Nerve & differentiating SNR/Dermatome from PN/Pure Patch & their INDIVIDUAL MRS's is just the best manner I have ever seen if differentiating the two possibilities in a differential dx. Thank you.
Hi! Pure patches contain a large number nerves from one peripheral nerve and is a sensory area that can be used in exams to help distinguish one nerve deficit over another. It's not exact and people vary due to the number of overlapping areas. I hope this helps!
What if you have it on both sides? Mine switch sides after i lay down Sometimes. No pain go down my leg. Been 7 weeks and currently in physical therapy. My therapist said its very rare to see both sides
Justin, I cannot comment clinically on your specific case. However, generally speaking, a disc lesion that feels like it changes sides after reclining suggests a significant instability in the area that may be caused by damage to the annulus (outside of the disc). The switching can also be caused by a significant amount of extracellular inflammation in the area moving with gravity. or position.
I know you posted this forever ago, but thank you so much for explaining so clearly. I have a TBI and have related auditory processing issues. I could not understand what my neuroscience professor was saying in any of the online lectures (poor audio, mumbling, rambling) and my accommodation for a written format was denied (there's no textbook either). This really helped me! And I'm relieved to see that you have a bunch of other videos covering some of the other topics in the course <3 I'm going to use them to prepare for the exam and hope I do well!
