Dr. Nabil Ebraheim, in 9 minutes you have concisely and completely explained my spinal status perfectly. For the very first time and so clearly that most doctors should be able to understand. I thank you as I am going to provide a link to this to my GP and neurologist (in Aug., 2021). Blessings upon you.
I'm really lucky to have such a skilled surgeon with over 8200 under hood belt. This is just how he described my condition. He's just surprised that I'm 38 years old and dealing with this. Good luck everyone. Be well.
@@TarikRom-hu3jj The fusion surgeries can be essential. If you really need it because you are losing a lot of strength or you have scoliosis or something. But I got a lot of friends who are getting them then afterwards they say they wish they did not get one. My doctor suggested a fusion to me I have not done it yet.
This video described everything way more clearly than the Neuro Surgeon I visited. The Dr. I saw just rushed through trying to explain what is wrong with my neck and how he would perform the surgery. He seemed so rushed, and acted like he had a million other patients to see and had only 5 minutes(or less) of time to speak with me.
Hi Doctor! Thank you so much for your video! I have been diagnosed with a 6mm C3-C4 herniated disc pushing on my spinal cord and causing symptoms for over 2 years. I have tried a lot of different things but I think I will need surgery. I am waiting for an appointment to see a neurosurgeon but wait times in Canada are very very long. It may be a year until I see a doctor and another few months until surgery. I am not sure what else I can do but wait and hope I don't get worse. Maybe I should explore seeing a doctor in the USA?
@@lololollo1977 I haven’t seen a doctor yet! Still waiting for my appointment to be booked with the neurosurgeon 😅 everytime I call the clinic they say they are so back up because of Covid and keep pushing my wait time out 🥺
@@margaretjoan2220 Hi Margaret! I did not get the surgery. I am still waiting for my refferal to see the spine specialist / neurosurgeon. Thankfully my symptoms have improved!! I only have flare-ups ( body pain, headaches, dizziness) when I am too active / climb too many flights of stairs, too many chores etc. but Walking around and light activity is okay now! I think it is gradually healing on its own! So I think it is a blessing that I didn't see a doctor quickly or I might have received surgery I didnt need. It was a longggg healing proccess though! And I am not sure if it will keep getting better and I can return to full activity.. but I am hopeful! I
@@RainessaASMR that good,you will fine,the physiotherapist told to stay active is very helpful and important,eat healthy,do some stretching and vitamin,am improving slowly,am going to see the specialist tomorrow,I guess to refer me to someone else after.
Finally someone understands me my spinal cord and spine hurt every day I use to be very active but now I can’t do anything I can’t enjoy any of my favorite things just stuck in my bed
I had two fusion surgeries this year 3 months apart. 35 years old. Surgeon fused 4 levels front and 4 levels the back of spine. I have really bad myelopathy from cervical stenosis and spinal compression. I’m 11 days post op and the myelopathy is still with me. I hope it goes away.
Dear Doc, Thank you for your explanation of these issues. I only wish all Neurological surgeons would be as educated as you, because they are assuming they know things when in reality they are many times doing surgeries when the problem is in a different area as your mentioned. Cervical issues can be causing lumbar like symptoms. I have had a few surgeries and I am serious when I say I wish you were my Doctor and able to diagnose and help me. I struggle with balance and pain and have issues in my cervical and Lumbar areas of my spine.
Guys,i have everything which has been in video,but did you guys look into other videos or different doctors,i have same symptoms,they come and go, but exercises,physiotherapy and stretching has helped me and some vitamins. Guys don’t lose hope…
Very informative and now we can ask questions an no more guessing. My mother-in-law is dealing with this problem for the past 10 months with 3 different neurologists and can’t pin point the problem. MRI coming soon and hope this will clear things up. I appreciate your time explaining
Dr. Ebraheim. I had to have Anterior Cervical Disketomy and Fusion (ACDF) in the summer of 2017. I was -to put it mildly- quite concerned. Many of the neurological symptoms you discuss in this video were going on, and what the surgeon explained, though it made sense, was hard to visualize. This video is spot on explaining everything in a succinct manner. I very much wish i had had this resource available then. Thank you for putting this together.
Clear concise with excellent animation makes the understanding of a condition much better than any words alone.....Excellent presentation..Thank You so much.
This helps a lot. It explains everything I'm going thorough. All my Dr's keep saying it's diabetic complications, vascular disease, Carple tunnel, whip lash from an old car accident. I keep telling them there something more to it but, can't get any of them to listen to me. What do I do?
I know how you feel. I can't tell you how many times I was told to get a new pillow. It finally got so bad I went to the ER. Finally found a primary who cared. Good luck to you.
I had ACDF on my C5 C6 and C7, 3 weeks ago. This was an insightful explanation, and it gave me hope that I will/would have a positive outcome. 🕯✨️ Thank you
I am a 68 yr old male who was diagnosed 5 yrs ago with cervical myelopathy (confirmed by MRI).. The neurosurgeon explained the risks of operating, but Dr. Ebraheim fails to mention the greatest risk in this video. It was explained to me that because it is such a delicate operation, there is a 15-16% chance of quadriplegia associated with this procedure. I would have opted for this operation if it was a 15% chance of death, but the specter of life as a quadriplegic was just too frightening. I've opted to take my chances for as long as I have left.
Hey Martin, my father is a 60 year old man who's just been diagnosed with multilevel cervical myleopathy. He has a rare blood group as well and has deteriorating gait and other motor functions, but can walk unassisted with some pain. I'm really confused about getting the surgery. Did you take any other treatment option?
Dr. Ebraheim is a gift to humanity. I have seen 7 spine doctors in four different countries with the MRIs of my lumbar and cervical regions. Most of them had opined that the pain in my lower back was coming from the lumbar. After embarking on a lumber decompression surgery (Laminectomy), the pain was still there. In fact, it became worse. I was lucky to recently find a doctor that believes, like Dr Ebraheim, that the problem resides in the cervical region! This video has now given me more reason why I should proceed with a neck surgery. Thank you Dr. Ebraheim
I too hesitated about the surgery, especially since I didn't have neck pain until recently. But reading all the symptoms and information from the surgeon and this video has made me realize I need to get it done and soon.
Most of the time its from the neck, as its her the head and due to forward head posture and pressure coming from the head and some whiplash injuries discs their as very vunrable
Yes, I agree with Calvin Lee. There are many side-effects to surgery. Also, now there are some new techniques that are not perfect but are improving. Please try to take medicine for the pain and do physical therapy and rehabilitation.
U need to understand what’s going on, conservative treatment is basically like taking pain killers for a tooth that’s infected and needs a root canal treatment. Your spinal cord is being pinched which if untreated for a long time can paralysis you. When your nerves are pinched the signals between nerve points starts to disfunction and that’s why u get pain, just the nerve is up pinched then you basically reversed that process. if you take strong painkillers for this or and injected to numb the nerve, what your doing is allowing the condition to deteriorate further with less pain until the pain killers were off. Conservative treatment. Is a failed treatment but they offer it first if normally they have a criteria of who should have surgery, normally it’s patients that have this issue for more then 6 months to a year. I’d I was an orthopaedic surgeon. If I find any pinching in the spinal cord I will straight away offer surgery
I learned a lot, even though I have watched many other videos about cervical myelopathy. Can you tell me if DTI is useful in evaluating cervical myelopathy?
TQVM Dr , good info for those suffering the Cervical Melophaty. I sufferd this last year undergone the surgery on 5th Feb 2020 at HUKM hospital by one of the specialist Of Cervical Spinal Cord. Currently I managed to stay my normal life inspite of doing physio therapist.
I have c4 c5 wh nerve compression..can it be cured without surgery..plz guide...since 2 months i m suffering from pain and inflammation around neck and shoulder in left arm
Artificial disc should only be used in young patients without extensive degenerative changes of the cervical spine. If you replace the disc in an elderly patient with severe arthritis/bone spurs, the arthritis and bone spurs will deteriorate the new disc prematurely.
I have a question… I had the surgery in 2018 but still on the decline repeat MRI showed myelomalacia. I can’t find anything on this topic. Can u help at all doctor?
Am pain every night and day I did mri found c3c4 and c5c6 cervical compression spine cord injury the progression is very fast I wanted to surgery but unfortunately have got heart problems what should I do please advise me people I don't to die.
Hi Nabil. I gone through your total VDO. I had also gone through the cervical surgery in March 18. My nerve was also pinched in C5-6-7 in MRI. In my case Legs got affected first hence walking got affected. Then @1 month later my right hand lost the hold/grip. In between these two incidents there was huge tingling which starts from neck & goes to fingures of both hand & legs. However later on right hand fingures lost hold. As of today my fingers gain the hold @80-90% but some times it gets cramped. But legs are still not recovered that much. Means tingling & numbness totally removed after surgery but legs still not. I can move, walk etc but not as natural. It's just like a video shown. While walking, working it gives pain & very irritating. One thing also cleared that the problem in legs is due to cervical Spondylitis. Since improvement in legs taking time & there is pain in lumber region while movement I thought there may be additional problem in lumber. Hence could you explain which medicine, treatment, yoga etc to be adopted to overcome this problem. Many thanks
Thank you doctor for an excellent dissertation and explanation of these conditions. I have stenosis in C and lumbar spine. Neck myelopathy with weakness and tingling in both arms worse on the left. My gait is affected, my bladder is affected although the 6 surgeons i have seen indicated that no surgery for me. Maybe !!!!! In the C spine at C4 to C7 if the pain and stiffness become unbearble. Ive been to Mt. Sinai, NY Columbia Pres , and other surgeons for opinions for 2 years. Non surgical spinal decompression has helped a bit. One surgeon said that not only would surgery not help me but could make me Worse. I experience constant temporal pain , TMJ syndrome, tinnitus, a d also have facet joing arthritis. All of this including 25 degree dextroscoliosis from a 1 inch shorter right leg after a femur fracture at age 15. 52 years ago when the body cast was removed, the fractured right leg did not grow, but the left leg did. Nothing was recommended to my parents to pursue such as a shoe adjustment for life. Any advice and direction is appreciated. Ive tried acupuncture, any sessions of PT, CHIRO and just recentky the aforementioned spinal decompression.
Hi Dr. Nabil. Very good vidios. I subscribed a couple years ago. On Oct 5/ 2019 i injured my c5-c7 disks in an Atv accident and compressed the spinal canal. Symptoms include, severe body pain, loss of hearing head ache. Difficulty moving extremities. Severe Nausea. Myelopathy. Surgeon said im in trouble. Can i get back to a normal life , will i recover? The Doctors are very concerned. Im a carpenter and do alot of hiking etc.

@@neetujogi8087 Hey man, honestly I think i'm doing better than when I commented this. Was diagnosed fibromyalgia by one doctor and another thinks I have neck arthritis. I've been in the gym taking things slow and my strength has improved and stretching is necessary. I'm in pain but manage it with cupping, stretching, and exercising. I still have very bad days but they're less and less
there is a patient who has got operated of spinal problem in the year may 2017 and since he is unable to stand or to move the total movement has stopped, even gradually voice gone and even problem faced on respiratory function, shall u suggest the treatment and about the disease, here there is no doctors are guided over the issue.

@@kimchaffee5397 I've already got a new MRI last month. There is some new herniated disc at other level. My doc think it may affects my condition now. Thanks
I'm talking to Sonospine as we speak. It's a surgery that doesn't involve fusion. The technique should be more known to people. Why it's not baffles me. Hopefully I'm eligible for it cause I do not want to go they a fusion at all. Pray for me people and look into this. Maybe it will help you out.
@@AdventuresInLiving The method is similar to this. Sonospine has a even smaller tool that does the same thing. My operation was minimally evasive, he went thru the back of my neck and within 2 hours I was back at my hotel. Next day eating food and walking around with my wife. I'm very happy I didn't get a fusion. I would do it all over again if had to. Can't say if I will ever need another operation but I will try to do the things necessary to stay healthy this time around.

All of this including 25 degree dextroscoliosis from a 1 inch shorter right leg after a femur fracture at age 15. 52 years ago when the body cast was removed, the fractured right leg did not grow, but the left leg did. Nothing was recommended to my parents to pursue such as a shoe adjustment for life. Any advice and direction is appreciated. Ive tried acupuncture, any sessions of PT, CHIRO and just recentky the aforementioned spinal decompression.
Please help me Details

Hi Dr. Nabil.
Very good vidios. I subscribed a couple years ago.
On Oct 5/ 2019 i injured my c5-c7 disks in an Atv accident and compressed the spinal canal. Symptoms include, severe body pain, loss of hearing head ache. Difficulty moving extremities. Severe Nausea. Myelopathy. Surgeon said im in trouble. Can i get back to a normal life , will i recover? The Doctors are very concerned. Im a carpenter and do alot of hiking etc.
how are you doing now?
@@sasukefan6919 Thanks for asking.
Well I'm learning to live with a cervical SCI.
Much more serious than I originally thought.
Baisicly I live in agony. Burning pain and numbness everywhere. Am now registered as an incomplete quarapleagic .
And you?
@@mrsensable I'm so sorry to hear that man... did they not offer surgery, especially for the Myelopathy? I myself am only 24 and suffered a SCI 2 years ago. Symptoms include chronic stiff neck, jaw pain, back pain, arm pain and numbness and tingling. I'm just starting to drop objects often
@@sasukefan6919how r u now am in the same boat. No doctor can help I lost everything 😢
@@neetujogi8087 Hey man, honestly I think i'm doing better than when I commented this. Was diagnosed fibromyalgia by one doctor and another thinks I have neck arthritis. I've been in the gym taking things slow and my strength has improved and stretching is necessary. I'm in pain but manage it with cupping, stretching, and exercising. I still have very bad days but they're less and less
there is a patient who has got operated of spinal problem in the year may 2017 and since he is unable to stand or to move the total movement has stopped, even gradually voice gone and even problem faced on respiratory function, shall u suggest the treatment and about the disease, here there is no doctors are guided over the issue.
I did have an mri scan that gave a lot of problems body starts shaking four an half hour . The result of the scan some foraming waist on level c3-c4 both sides c5-c6 right ,c6-c7 left . please let me know what you think
Thanks a million
Iv been just diagnosed
I also have A.S. and C.H.D. for years
Can please explain what is meant by loss of 50% of motion ?
Range of motion (ROM) loss of 50%. So basically, if the patient could move one direction all the way when healthy, just think of it as half of that.
Das ist eine äußerst sehenswerte Dokumentation! Sehr sachlich und ruhig aufbereitet. So etwas vermisst man heute im Fernsehen. Wir versuchen die Geschichte anhand von alten Briefen und Tagebüchern aufzuarbeiten. In dieser Rubrik gibts auch einige Texte aus Feldpostbriefen und Tagebüchern aus dem Russlandfeldzug

Problem with carrying my head after 10 min I have to lay down
I'm still in pain and suffering even after a spinal fusion surgery. Diagnosed with failed back surgery syndrome now.
@@kimchaffee5397 I've already got a new MRI last month. There is some new herniated disc at other level. My doc think it may affects my condition now. Thanks
I'm talking to Sonospine as we speak. It's a surgery that doesn't involve fusion. The technique should be more known to people. Why it's not baffles me. Hopefully I'm eligible for it cause I do not want to go they a fusion at all. Pray for me people and look into this. Maybe it will help you out.
What method
@@AdventuresInLiving The method is similar to this. Sonospine has a even smaller tool that does the same thing. My operation was minimally evasive, he went thru the back of my neck and within 2 hours I was back at my hotel. Next day eating food and walking around with my wife. I'm very happy I didn't get a fusion. I would do it all over again if had to. Can't say if I will ever need another operation but I will try to do the things necessary to stay healthy this time around.
@@citizencain2383 do you know the name of the method
@@AdventuresInLiving no but you can call Sonospine and get it
@@citizencain2383 perhaps would you and get back to us would be super appreciated
I need to c u doctor.

I want this problem solution
Your aal vedios is veri good for me bekas i am yoga teachar 13 ago bambo spontalitis pesent today i am 100% ok thanks yoga 💝🙏🙏🙏
Hi Anirudh! I had also gone through the cervical surgery in March 18. My nerve was also pinched in C5-6-7 in MRI. In my case Legs got affected first hence walking got affected. Then @1 month later my right hand lost the hold/grip. In between these two incidents there was huge tingling which starts from neck & goes to fingures of both hand & legs. However later on right hand fingures lost hold. As of today my fingers gain the hold @80-90% but some times it gets cramped. But legs are still not recovered that much. Means tingling & numbness totally removed after surgery but legs still not. I can move, walk etc but not as natural. It's just like a video shown. While walking, working it gives pain & very irritating. Hence could you explain which medicine, treatment, yoga etc adopted by you as informed to overcome this problem. Many thanks
