Scoliosis progressing, l5 compression, emg changes, lumbar spondylolisthesis, c4-6 narrow, pain. what are my options?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Options: A good Orthopedic eval is needed to go over all you have done already. Generally, conservative Treatment first with medication, Physical therapy, possible pain management with epidurals, and then if needed and no relief, a Neurosurgical evaluation may be needed to discuss surgical options. Best wishes.
