Patient Testimonial for Surgery for Spinal Stenosis

Testimonial by Mrs. C. Balamma

Lumbar canal stenosis occurs when the spinal canal in the lower back narrows, leading to pressure on the spinal cord and nerves. This condition often results from age-related changes, such as the thickening of ligaments or the formation of bone spurs. Symptoms may include back pain, numbness, tingling, weakness, or pain that radiates down the legs. Diagnosis involves a physical exam, imaging tests like MRI or CT scans to visualize the spinal canal, and sometimes nerve function tests. Treatment options range from conservative measures like physical therapy, pain management, and lifestyle adjustments to more invasive treatments like surgery to decompress the affected nerves.

Bilateral knee osteoarthritis is a degenerative joint disease affecting both knees. It typically develops due to wear and tear on the joints over time. Factors like age, genetics, obesity, or previous joint injuries can contribute to its development. Symptoms include knee pain, stiffness, swelling, and reduced mobility. Diagnosis involves a physical exam, X-rays, and sometimes additional imaging tests. Treatment includes pain management, exercise, physical therapy, lifestyle modifications, and, in severe cases, surgical interventions like knee replacement surgery.

Both conditions may benefit from a combination of non-invasive and surgical treatments, with the approach tailored to the individual’s symptoms and severity of the condition. It is essential for individuals experiencing these symptoms to seek medical evaluation for proper diagnosis and guidance on appropriate treatments.

Mrs. C. Balamma from Karnataka successfully received treatment for Lumbar Canal Stenosis & Bilateral Knee Osteoarthritis at Yashoda Hospitals, Hyderabad, under the supervision of Dr. G. Krishna Mohan Reddy, Consultant Physician and Diabetologist and Dr. Srinivas Botla, Senior Consultant Neurosurgeon.
