CT Lumbar spine results?

So I would have to say you need to ask your doctor the question about surgery. Basically the report says your lower back has two spots where your spinal cord is being pinched. This can be cause from an injury or unfortunately body habitus (aka few more pounds than a normal person...sorry no easy way to explain that one). Carrying extra pounds around puts a lot of strain on things especially your back and can cause a disc (the paddingin betweenn your vertebrae) to bulge or even slip out of it's spot causing a pinch on the spinal cord. Depending on the severity of the stenosis will help your doctor decide on your treatment. sometimes they tell you to lose some weight and exercise which they tell you which ones to do or in the most severe cases they will take you to surgery. Listen to your choices the doctor gives you and my advice is try everything else before going the surgery route. Sometimes surgery is exactly what you need and it turns out great and sometimes surgery doesn'tt turn out great and your still in pain. Good luck!!!!
