You explained this condition better than my neurosurgeon. I have it chronic. Been suffering for years now. Two bouts of PT and still the same. Sometimes it gets really bad to the point I can barely walk and other times it's just a constant chronic stiffness and sharp pain. Funny enough of the exercises you showed, I only did two in PT. It's a bit depressing to know that it can't truly be fixed without surgery but if I can stop it from worsening then I'll continue to do the excercises. This year I started having leg weakness which scared me big time. 😫. Thankyou for your insight!
After almost a year of watching videos on exercises and non-surgical treatments for herniated discs; I gotta say that this short but concise video of yours IS THE BEST AWAKENING TO WHAT IS GOING ON IN MY SPINE! I knew how to do decompression movements for central canal stenosis; which is what I always assumed I had. But in watching the anatomical lessons from neurosurgeon doctor Nabil Ebraheim on YT; I had concluded that due to the symptoms I was experiencing in my feet and calves; that the L3, L4, and L5-S1 nerve roots were affected. But it wasn't until watching your video that it dawned on me that my radiculopathy symptoms WERE NOT FROM CENTRAL CANAL STENOSIS! THEY WERE DUE TO FORAMINAL STENOSIS! And the lateral bending that you demonstrate were exactly replicating those few times in a day where I felt tremendous relief; BY ACCIDENT! I didn't know how to replicate those movements with specific exercises; as it was only when I would drag myself out of my electric recliner and twisted/rotated my lumbar spine before standing; that I would feel so good for that minute or so! Holy cow! I'm going to save this video to my favorites,, and practice these movements as I have the chance, throughout each day! (Nobody has critically analyzed my 2 MRI exams over 2 years, to the point of pinpointing just where the herniations or bulges protrude from the vertebral bodies. But I will ask my doctor to pull up the video disc that was recorded and try to get a lateral detail view that confirms my suspicions!) THANK-YOU SO MUCH, MA'AM!
Mam I have patient of disc bulge and radiating pain right leg now it's healed and the pain is shifted to left leg and pain in thigh region.. I have diagnosed it foramen stenosis. Help
I suffer from extreme sciatica pain in the last month. I had some back pain and after a basketball game that I played it became nerve pain. And because of my symptoms that I feel relief when sitting and can’t stand or walk straight so I think it’s the stonsis. That can even happens to me if I’m 30 years old or it’s very rare at this age and I Might be wrong? Thank you
Hello. Degenerative changes in the form of stenosis can be observed in young people, although it is rare and usually the source of their formation is a trauma from the past. At your age, it is likely that you have damaged the intervertebral disc that gave you radicular symptoms or simply overloaded some of the spinal ligaments during physical activity, which caused inflammation and pain. You wrote about 2 weeks ago, so I'm guessing that today the pain is much weaker, or you even forget about it. However, it is good that in the future you have an imaging examination of the spine, preferably an MRI, to find out the source of the problem. If the disc has been herniated (discopathy) - you should, under the supervision of a physiotherapist, implement appropriate exercises that will strengthen the structures around the damaged segment and promote disc regeneration. Have a great day!
Hello , i am 35 years old and have sciatica in my left leg due to a herniated disc . I had pain in my back for 3 or 4 days but that disappeared but now i have a pinched s1 root nerve due to the disc bulge . I only have pain when i walk in my left leg for last 1 month . Will it get resolved by exercises ? Ortho doctor says if pain doesn’t resolve by 30 days i need a surgery ? I am scared .

Thank you, I really appriciate your video. I have been suffering from lumbar stenosis myself. And, there are days that I struggle to walk.
Thank you for showing the flexion and extension clearly with the model.

Thank you Sir, I'm glad I could help! Have a great day
Great informative video.
Will help lot of.
Can cure the sciatica by doing foraminal exercises.
I appreciate your honesty ❤❤❤

Glad it was helpful!
Thank you
❤
Very useful
