A member asked:
Can a cyst or tumor on my thoracic spine be caused by a serious motorcycle accident? what type of doctor should i see for this?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
See a neurosurgeon: It is unlikely that the previous accident has caused your spinal problem. You need further evaluation which can be done either by a neurosurgeon or by an orthopedic doctor. Good luck.
