My brother is suffering from L3, L4 and L5 (L4 is not much problem according to medical reports. L3 and L5 are much strained & narrowed that some blood supply and other related things are not perfect according to doctor's explanation to us) joint problem of spine. He used many medicines in both ayurvedic and regular allopathic English medicines under the guidance of some MD doctors. But of no use and the problem is since 3yrs. His legs are continuously paining and when he walks for more than 10 min they start troubling as if he looses sense consciousness of legs. We are trying to go for surgery but, many people are suggesting not to go saying such an operation makes him to remain in bed all the time! What to do. Please give sincere suggestion.
