hi, I have been diagnosed wirh cervical foraminal stenosis, stenosis, osteoarthritis and degenerative disc issues at C4,5
down to T1. At 45 this does not bode well since the foraminal opening for the nerve feeding through to the left Ulnar nerve is being continually squeezed by progressive bone growth. At the current time, spinal injections keep the inflamation in check around the opening but as the bone continues to grow, these will eventually fail and other trouble areas will likewise begine causing loss of limb functiion. Any suggestions on controling inflamation at these sites? I am assuming there is nothing short of surgery that can be done about the foraminal opening closing off with bone growth with resulting nerve death snd paralysis of the assoc. limb.
