I am short of words to express my gratitude and appreciation. I am a resident of PMR and I had a tough time grabbing this concept of exiting, transiting nerve roots and disc herniation You made it look so simple when in reality it's not that easy. Kudos and thanks for the effort. Highly recommend this video to all the PMR physicians, young neurosurgery and spinal residents

Lumbar: Impingement in the neural foramen affects the nerve in that foramen. Ex: between L4-L5 pedicles/neural foramen=L4 affected. IV herniations usually impinge the nerve level associated with the infra-adjacent vertebrae. For example, L4-L5 IV affects L5 Cervical: Impingement in the neural foramen by bone spur or IV disc herniation affects the nerve in that foramen. C5-C6 bone spur/herniated disk=affect C6

Animation is costly and it takes time. I know little bit of it so i can imagine how much effort you are putting. Writing a book can cover more topics and with less investment. Thank you..

Hi, very interesting to listen to this. A little twist on this, what do you think it looks like on a person who has an Extra lumbar vertebra? an L6 not a lumbarised S1 but 25 vertebrae + a fully developed sacrum of 5 fused blocks. Is there then also an Extra nerve pair or is it even the case that it is the S1 nerve root that passes out under the L6 TP?

Can you please explain to me what kind of hope I have. My feet burn and are cold at the same time and I have mass spams in both legs and feet sometimes. My report reads L2-L3 right foraminal/extraforiminal disc extrusion has mass effect on L2 nerve root/dorsal root ganglion. Right foraminal stenosis. L3-L4 degenerative disc disease, reactive endplate edema, retrolisthesis, central braod-based disc protrusion abuts L4 root sleeves, greater on right, moderate right greater than left lateral recess stenosis. Moderate bilateral foraminal narrowing. L4-L5 shallow based right paracentral disc protrusion right L5 root sleeve without mass effect. Moderate right forminal narrowing. Left L5 nerve root exits inferior foramen and abuts buldging disc.

What really affects humans compared to other animals is walking upright, wheres on 4 legs gravity does not affect the spine nearly as much. To have a healthy spine it is important to reduce the effects of gravity and use an inversion table. You will be amazed how much better your body and spine will feel. It is very important to use Only the velcro straps to hold your feet for proper inversion. Herniated discs occur generally when someone "lifts too much weight or improperly lifts weight". That weight you pick up along with body mass compresses the spine and vertebra. Reversing that compression is what is important to reduce damage (and thus pain) with your spine. And help prevent a herniated disc in the first place. Prevention and taking care of yourself is the best way to stay healthy. Reversing the effects of gravity from standing upright should not be underestimated for good spinal health and feeling good/no aches and pains. take care..

@@TheNotedAnatomist Thank you. I had this problem at 28 years old and an operation was suggested but considering my age at that time and considering how I was going to live for the rest of my life after an operation such as that, I decided not to have the operation even if the condition caused me so much pain and numbing of my entire shoulders down to the tips of my fingers because C6 and C7 in my cervical spine was affected. I got over it through some unconventional procedure and I'm 60 now and never had the pain for over 30 years as far as I can remember. I suffered the pain for 11 months and that was all...

Hi I’m in a world of pain from an impinged nerve and I don’t want an operation and the surgeon is also very hesitant due to the last Laminectomy I had where it took 3 operations to stop a spinal fluid leak and now I have like a sack of fluid showing up on the MRI but exactly where they would need to operate again risking that happening again and not being able to be controlled. My problem is I can’t live like this there is no end to the pain in my hip, leg and knee cap this time the back pain is bad enough. I don’t know what to do but if it can’t be fixed then there is only one option to end the pain. Not that I can say on this why it is.

The referred pain story story keeps being inconsistent for now. From On the definitions and physiology of back pain, referred pain, and radicular pain, 2009: “Thus, although disc herniation is the most common cause of radicular pain, it is not a common cause of back pain.” So they are saying even though there are nociceptors in the disc, a herniated disc usually doesn’t even cause back pain. So back pain then must be caused by facet joint inflammation. “The vast majority of patients with nociceptive back pain does not have radicular pain, and do not have a disc herniation.” Nociceptive back pain can radiate, but I think there is confusion in that the term radiate is always used implying the highest pain is in the back, not the pheriphery, so assuming back pain is causing a worse extremity pain would be false. Ie fixing the back pain would not fix the other pain in patients who are experiencing more pain at another location. If the spine is causing the referred pain, you wouldn’t be trying to localize it to where the back hurts necessarily, unless nociceptive pain and impingement have the same cause, but per above quote that is rare. “However, radiculopathy is not defined by pain [but numbness]” So again, the patient is ill advised to think a location of severe pain is caused by either a nociceptive or radiculopathy spine problem. Radicular pain (not same as radiculopathy) also does not feel like nociceptive pain but more like an electric shock and goes down the leg in a narrow band. Also the ganglion has to be inflamed, by a herniating disc (which usually dry out though so it seems unlikely to me even that kind of pain could be chronic) “ If clinicians ceased to confuse somatic referred pain and radicular pain, fewer patients would be mismanaged, and fewer would sustain iatrogenic (clinician caused) problems” From how I’ve read this the problem is blaming any real pain away from the spine on nerve impingements or spinal abnormalities
