Can lhermitte's signal be caused from extreme exercise with the head in prone position(raised slightly as in stair climbing, sit ups, running uphill)?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Unusual: Really must explain why only the posterior columns in the cervical spinal cord are afflicted, and your description does not fit usual causation patterns. See your neurologist, and get further testing.
