[ad_1] Medical research is exploring different angles to find a cure for spinal cord injuries. Studies have shown that damaged axons and high levels of fibrinogen can inhibit neuron repair. While there is optimism, a single cure is unlikely, and it may take time to find a solution. For many years it was thought that […]
[ad_1] Spinal cord injuries can cause full or partial paralysis, with two types of injuries: complete or incomplete. The severity of the injury varies, and patients may experience emotional and medical problems. When a person suffers a spinal injury, the spinal cord becomes damaged. This causes full or partial paralysis. Not all patients have the […]
[ad_1] Spinal tuberculosis, also known as extrapulmonary or Pott’s disease, is a rare form of tuberculosis that damages spinal discs and causes deformity. It has been a problem for thousands of years and is more common in developing countries and AIDS populations. Treatment includes anti-tuberculosis drugs and surgery in severe cases. Spinal tuberculosis is a […]
[ad_1] Spinal dysraphism is a congenital defect of the neural tube that can cause a range of symptoms from mild to severe. Open spinal dysraphism can result in meningocele or myelomeningocele, which can severely impair the central nervous system. Diagnosis can occur while the fetus is still in the uterus, and treatment may include surgery, […]
[ad_1] A spinal abscess is a cyst or pus-filled lesion that can cause pain, swelling, fever, and chills. It can be caused by infectious bacteria entering a wound or spreading from another part of the body. Treatment options include antibiotics, anti-inflammatory drugs, and surgical drainage. Without treatment, it can lead to severe paralysis. A spinal […]
[ad_1] Degenerative disc disease is caused by wear and tear on the intervertebral discs of the spine, resulting in low back pain and potentially herniated discs. Treatment includes rest, physical therapy, and epidural steroid injections. Degeneration of the spine, or degenerative disc disease, is characterized by one or more intervertebral discs starting to break down […]
[ad_1] Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) is a fluid that circulates through the brain and spinal cord, protecting against shock absorption. A CSF leak can occur due to traumatic injury, surgery, or medical procedures. Symptoms include headache, nausea, and ringing in the ears. CSF leaks can heal on their own, but surgery may be needed if symptoms […]
