Patient's Query

Hi doctor,

I am 23 years old, female, and I have scoliosis. I had surgery 12 years back, and everything was fine. I do not have any problems. However, until now, I have had pain In my left hand and shoulder with a tingling in both hands and feet, and my neck hurts when I move it. The pain suddenly appeared, and I do not know what caused it. What could be the cause?

Kindly help.

Hello,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

Thank you for your query.

I can understand your concern. I have reviewed your reports (attachment removed to protect the patient's identity). But what I need are the X-rays and clinical findings, such as,

  1. Do you have any weaknesses or limitations during movements?
  2. Do you experience spasms?
  3. Which is the most tender part?

I hope this has helped you. Thank you.

Same symptoms don't mean you have the same problem. Consult a doctor now!
