Compressive Myelopathy
When we were young we used to hear our grandparents constantly lamenting about body aches particularly joint and back pain. They were always prevented from engaging in physical activities by this agony.
Description:
Myelopathy refers to any neurologic deficit involving the spinal cord. It is referred to as a spinal cord injury (acute) when caused by trauma. When it becomes inflamed, it is referred to as myelitis. Vascular myelopathy is a type of disease that affects the spine. Cervical spondylitis myelopathy (CSM), the most prevalent type of myelopathy in humans, is brought on by arthritic changes (spondylosis) in the cervical spine. This narrowing of the spinal canal (spinal stenosis) eventually compresses the spinal cord. Spinal cord compression is frequently caused by an inflammatory process that affects the posterior longitudinal. l ligament. The term "myelopathy" describes a collection of symptoms experienced by individuals who have spinal cord compression. The spine provides extensive protection for our spinal cord. It is obviously made up of nerves that send and receive messages from the brain. A little damage will cause the system to fail completely. However, if the spine is injured for any reason, there's a chance that the spinal cord will be compressed, which could lead to compressive myelopathy. However, these difficulties have not only gotten worse over time but have also increased in frequency due to changes in beliefs and lifestyles.The majority of us have experienced both moderate and severe back pain. There could be a multitude of reasons for this. However, in recent years, there has been a rise in the number of patients experiencing back pain from various sources.

This could relieve some of the space inside the column and lead to compression. Tumours : have the potential to cause spinal cord compression. Disc prolapse: IVDP : The intervertebral disc may bulge and compress the spinal cord's following segment. Injury: Compression of the spinal cord may result from an injury or even an infection.
