Orthopaedic Surgeon,  's  Response
Hello.
Thanks for writing to us.
The loss of bladder control is likely to be due to a nerve root involvement by the prolapsed discs. You can get some muscle relaxants prescribed for him along with methylcobalamin supplements.
I hope this information has been both informative and helpful for you.
