I had L4-5 fusion in 2019. Pain was unbearable post op. Never got better. Finally found out that on all my scans I had the surgeon left 2 screws in my nerve canal. This was for 4 years. I got the cage out as I'm obviously fused now. Has this ever happened with you or any of your colleagues? Is this common?
Thank you for this video. I just had a L2-5 laminectomy with fusion. 2rods 8 screws. Was painful in beginning but 9 days in much better. Im a huge athlete and just walking. anxious to get back to normal activities. I did a lot of core and leg work prior. It helped a lot.
Just had S1/L5 & L5-L4 spinal fusion and lamsectomy, had really bad nerves damage right side S1-L5 and ruptured L5. But I have pain in the right hips that’s been there since after surgery. Starting simple exercises and walking about a full block 2x’s aday and feels great, I would be 1000% better if I could get rid of the hip pain. Doctor says the nerves are healing and will fire off periodically and most of my hip pain is from the nerve regrowth.
I've been partially bedridden, for years after a fall, I sustained bilateral SLAP tears, bilateral ankle and foot injuries, spine, knee, tbi, and more... I have only had one foot fixed so far and one shoulder repair that failed due to someone tipping at my arm 3 weeks post op. I cannot stand long, sit long, or lay long. I went from elite athlete level to frail and medically deconditioned. I'm having a neuroforaminal bilateral posterior approach TLIF with Nuvasive TDX. I'm so lost about what I can do now and have fusion in July. I'm so scared, and I have No help...
Whilst I am a surgeon, I like to find ways for patients to avoid surgery and Professor Peter O'Sullivan has develooed the best clinically proven method for doing this in my latest video: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-AlNXwnS_7L4.htmlsi=D8s8Zcqf4p1ZSD2t
