Question : Is an operation need,as I have a lot of pain.ThanksKP
Hello there! There is narrowing of your spinal canal. Symptomatic treatments sometimes suffices, but if that did not help or if you are young and have a long life a head of you, you should have a surgery. If you are not willing to surgery there are medical options too. We can discuss that too. But should go for surgery if medicines have not helped. I will be here if you need to discuss other medical options and not willing for surgeryRegards Chat Doctor.
