48yo male - 30 degree curv - scoliosis. auto accid 20 yrs ago. many mris - syrinx - recently legs started jump nite. whats general outlook & time?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Legs jump: Many syrinxes cause no symptoms nor require any treatment, but I would abide by the judgement of a neurosurgeon or neurologist. You may be experiencing restless leg syndrome which can be treated with medication. Consult one of these specialists for evaluation and advice.
