Cauda equina syndrome occurs when the nerve roots in the lumbar spine are compressed, cutting off sensation and movement. Nerve roots that control the function of the bladder and bowel are especially vulnerable to damage. • If patients with cauda equina syndrome do not seek immediate treatment to relieve the pressure, it can result in permanent paralysis, impaired bladder and/or bowel control, loss of sexual sensation, and other problems. Even with immediate treatment, some patients may not recover complete function. The best outcomes for cauda equina syndrome occur with earlier treatment. • Although early treatment is required to prevent permanent problems, cauda equina syndrome may be difficult to diagnose. Symptoms vary in intensity and may evolve slowly over time. • See your doctor immediately if you have: • Bladder and/or bowel dysfunction, causing you to retain urine or be unable to hold it. • Severe or progressive problems in the lower extremities, including loss of or altered sensation between the legs, over the buttocks, the inner thighs and back of the legs (saddle area), and feet/heels. • Treatment • If you have cauda equina syndrome, you may need urgent surgery to remove the material that is pressing on the nerves. The surgery may prevent pressure on the nerves from reaching the point at which damage is irreversible. • • Living With Cauda Equina Syndrome • Surgery may not repair permanent nerve damage. If this occurs as a result of cauda equina syndrome, you can learn how to improve your quality of life. • Some suggestions: • In addition to medical personnel, you may want to get help from an occupational therapist, social worker, continence advisor, or sex therapist. • Involve your family in your care. • To learn all you can about managing the condition, you may want to join a cauda equina syndrome support group. • Managing Bladder and Bowel Function • Some bladder and bowel function is automatic, but the parts under voluntary control may be lost if you have cauda equina syndrome. This means you may not know when you need to urinate or move your bowels, and/or you may not be able to eliminate waste normally. • Some general recommendations for managing bladder and bowel dysfunction: • Empty the bladder completely with a catheter 3 to 4 times each day. Drink plenty of fluids and practice regular personal hygiene to prevent urinary tract infection. • Check for the presence of waste regularly and clear the bowels with gloved hands. You may want to use glycerin suppositories or enemas to help empty the bowels. Use protective pads and pants to prevent leaks. • #Cauda #Equina #Syndrome • --------------------------------------- • SUBSCRIBE to get updates on new videos. • For Appointment Call Us: +91-9654095717 or visit: https://www.drhimanshutyagi.in/ • .............................................................................. • Follow us for more! • Facebook: / drhimanshutyagi • Instagram: / drhimanshurtyagi • Linkedin: / drhimanshutyagi • • चैनल सब्सक्राइव कर Bell बटन दवाएं -https://bit.ly/3HeVHum • .................................................................. • If a course of nonsurgical treatments (generally four to six weeks) is not effective for relieving pain from a herniated disc, lumbar decompression surgery may be considered as an option. Often a microdiscectomy (or microdecompression) - a type of lumbar decompression surgery - is used to treat nerve compression from a herniated disc • The microdiscectomy procedure is usually highly successful for relieving the leg pain (sciatica) caused by a herniated disc. Although the nerve root takes several weeks or months to fully heal, patients often feel immediate relief of their leg pain and usually have a minimal amount of discomfort following the. • #spine #backpain #spinehealth #spinesurgeon #slipdisc #drhimanshutyagi #bestspinesurgeon #scoliosis #scoliosistreatment #scoliosissurgery #kneepain #kneereplacement #kneesurgeon #kneearthritis #knee #kneepainhomeremedies #neckpain #neckpaintreatment #neck #cervicaldischerniation #cervicalpain #cervicalspondylosis #cervicalspine #cervical_spondylosis #lumbar #lumbarfusion #lumbarpain #lumbarspondylosis #lumbarspine #surgery #surgeryresults #surgery
