A member asked:
Can physical therapy correct moderate to severe cervical stenosis and herniated discs? thanks.
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Cervical stenosis : Intermittent cervical traction may be helpful for cervical disc syndromes. Other physical therapies will not reduce the size of the cervical disc but may be very helpful. In general, time alone can reduce the size of disc displacements. The answer to your question is considering your physical examination and symptoms- and not focusing on the MRI findings alone. MRIs don't equal outcomes.
