@@DrDanielBridge Does this help for piriformis syndrome

[@mamabear6710]

In August 21' I had a R side TLIF surgery, cage was inserted at 4/5 L.. post operatively the pain returned in vengeance ..fast forward to the New Year 22.... return to surgeon, who ordered new images.. XR showed the cage had migrated, thus requiring a revision surgery, with hardware applied this time ( screws/ plates) The migrated cage was not removed.. my sciatica has only worsened and I'm being told now that I'm having failed back surgery syndrome . I've exhausted corticosteroid epidural's, nerve ablations and PT to no avail.. the only thing my surgeon is offering me is a spinal cord stimulator. Your thoughts??

How can I differentiate between sciantica and lumbar prondylosis

[@DrDanielBridge]

Lumbar spondylosis refers to the bone spurs coming off of your lumbar vertebrae. Sciatica is the pain and numbness that people get down their leg. Hope that helps differentiate

[@olvinmerritt404]

Hi used full information..

[@DrDanielBridge]

Thank you!

[@youtube-jenny806]

Thank you so much for the great videos! I've been doing alot of reading on Spondylolisthesis ( vertebra that slides forward) and Retrolisthesis ( Vertebra that slides backward). Was wondering the term used when a vertebra slides or moves from side to side? I have a ligament/muscle pulling my Spinous Process out of alignment from the side. Would very much appreciate any advice! Thank you!

[@DrDanielBridge]

You are welcome! A sideways slippage is called a laterolisthesis. Have you seen anyone about your condition?

[@moreofawave]

Funny way to remember this exercise!😄 Love it! Thanks Doc!! Great video and exercises. I'm doing them right now!

[@DrDanielBridge]

Thanks for the support and for watching the channel!

[@adelaidemohapi1909]

This is a question.can I wear compresion stockings when I have sciatica

[@DrDanielBridge]

Have you tried that before?

[@patb3pat]

Hi Doc. What are the reps for each of the exercises

[@DrDanielBridge]

I like to start out with 3x10 for the exercises

[@rogee6425]

For the last one, what is an alternative for those who are less flexible?

[@DrDanielBridge]

For those that are less flexible there are ways to stretch out your piriformis while on all fours as well as laying flat on your back. I demonstrate that in another video. Best of luck!

[@ShirleySmith-k5y]

How much magnesium should I take.

[@በትእግስትያልፋል]

I am suffering for thr pasy 6 werks also doing the stretches not better very bad pain in the morning is sauna good for this psin? I wish every one feel better

[@DrDanielBridge]

Very sorry that you’re dealing with that pain. A sauna can be really nice to loosen up those back muscles. Don’t give up!

[@shulintrivedi9471]

[@DrDanielBridge]

That sounds really tough. Have you done an ergonomics assessment?

[@yfchew8517]

Hi Dr. Daniel, I always hear about pain going down the back of the leg. In my case, when I bend forward, the pain goes down the front of my leg. What could be the problem

[@DrDanielBridge]

Typically that is a symptom is different nerves being affected, usually around L3

[@Tom-Travels]

Subscribed. What exercises can I do lying in bed.

[@DrDanielBridge]

Thanks Tom, that video is in the works so stay tuned!

[@fisehamekonen6131]

How I can relief totally from sciatica pain

[@DrDanielBridge]

Sciatica pain can be so debilitating. What have you done so far?

[@jaikumarjaikumar6215]

Education 😮😮😮😮😮😮

[@DrDanielBridge]

Thank you!

[@shulintrivedi9471]

Most of the sufferer who r doing office work so many years like me have to correct their office table and main chair. tips for that.If possible in detail. Thanks

[@DrDanielBridge]

Stay tuned because that is a video I’ll be making at some point

[@friekek9683]

how come that putting my leg on the knee is hard to do as the aductor and the quads tighten up and stop me from doing it

[@DrDanielBridge]

Tight muscles in those areas can definitely make this difficult. Changing the angle of your knee may help

[@ysmith36607]

On the last stretch I have goin pain and cand sit up totally straight

[@DrDanielBridge]

I would get checked out by a local professional

[@vincentbarrett7266]

Nothing like learning n laughing the same time

[@DrDanielBridge]

I couldn’t agree more!

[@jayneberriman9177]

Can I have vibrating but no pain

[@DrDanielBridge]

Pain is only one symptom. Tingling, numbness and weakness are several others. By vibrating do you mean tingling?

[@magic.weaver]

I have been suffering from chronic sciatica from last 6 years. I have tried PT,exercises but nothing really lasts. Its okay if i stay home but as soon as i hit my desk job at office it flares up. Can you suggest me something?

[@DrDanielBridge]

Have you seen a chiropractor?

[@punchohill1012]

What if I'm in pain already,and can't really lift my leg because of the pain?

[@DrDanielBridge]

That sounds really painful. Have you seen a professional at this point?

[@cordilliabaker7037]

My low back hurts and it sends pain down to my calf and my calf hurts so bad can't hardly put any pressure on it...

[@DrDanielBridge]

So sorry you’re dealing with that. Hopefully you can find a solution

[@thinkingoutloud675]

I havent had a good nights rest since i got this thing a week ago. I cant sit for too long either

[@DrDanielBridge]

Very sorry to hear that!

[@geminisinger6673]

Ah yes the piriformis stretch......a good slight hurt that feels good!

[@DrDanielBridge]

Couldn’t agree more!
