What is the remedy for peripheral extremityop neutopathic pain caused by disc fusion @ l5?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
A disc fusion: In and of itself shouldn't cause neuropathy, an injury or entrapment of a nerve would. Why not return to the surgeon and see what they think. If you are unable to find help, i would recommend you contact dellon nerve institute. There are a few with the main one in baltimore.
