Hi,I am Dr. Gopal Goel (Orthopaedic Surgeon). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Hi I am having new symptoms this week. I have spinal stenosis, herniated disc, T12, L1, L4,L5. I also have a herniated disc in my neck, foot drop right leg. Now my neck has been bothering me all week; which isn’t unusual; my rib cage on the right side is hurting on my back side. This started today. Any idea what’s happening with that.
