Dear Sir, Hi I am from Mumbai. My mother having some back pain issue since 15 years. We have done many treatments like stretching and some kind of physiotherapy. Currently she has suffer by right body pain (right leg, right hand, right side of neck & right side of back) even she couldn't seat easily. We have done MRI &Dr says that her right side nerve cramp in vertebrae also there is gap between back & neck bones of vertebral column. Dr. suggest for operation but we decide some physiotherapy & after 2 months she now feeling well, now she don't have right side pain. But problem is now she is suffer by left side body pain & she still not recover. We have done same physiotherapy on left side also but after 1 month treatment there is no any improvement observed. Some Dr. Says try to avoid operation because it is not safe for patient. Kindly suggest what we can do to recover in this situation & will be safe for patient also. Your consultation is valuable for us, waiting for your reply. Thank you Best Regards,
