cervical cord compression

[montu007]

Sir,

my father is having c4-5 & c6-7 cord compression & due to which he is not able to walk what is the solution

[Prem Pillay, MD]

Dear Boycee,

yes a spinal cord stimulator is a treatment for chronic pain including that from archnoiditis.

[Prem Pillay, MD]

This really constitutes an urgent situation where microsurgery with decompression of the spinal cord should be carried out.
Please seek professional advice quickly from a Neurosurgeon in your vicinity.
