Symptoms Before Spine Treatment
Before getting treatment, the patient had several spine-related problems. She suffered from continuous lower back pain for over 2 years. The pain also spread to both legs, especially while standing or walking.
She faced these daily challenges:
Could not walk for more than 5 minutes without taking rest
Felt sharp pain when getting up, sitting down, or turning in bed
Experienced frequent slipping of her feet while walking
Needed to sit often while doing basic kitchen tasks
Had disturbed sleep because of pain in her back and legs
These symptoms showed that she needed proper care through Slip Disc and Lumbar Spine Treatment. Her condition was successfully managed with expert care by Dr. Sangram Rajale, known for providing the best spine treatment in Pune.
Clinical Examination Before Slip Disc and Lumbar Spine Treatment
During her spine check-up, we performed several tests to understand the severity of her condition.
- The Straight Leg Raise (SLR) test was positive on both sides, which is a clear sign of nerve pressure in the lower spine.
- Muscle strength in both legs showed weakness:
- EHL (Extensor Hallucis Longus): 4/5 on both sides
- EDL (Extensor Digitorum Longus): 4/5 on both sides
These results confirmed that she needed timely treatment to reduce nerve compression and avoid further damage. A surgical plan was advised for effective pain relief and long-term recovery.
