Hi,I am Dr. Gopal Goel (Orthopaedic Surgeon). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
i have pain in my right shoulder and arm due to a c-5 burst fracture with no surgery 4 weeks in.... i was told that the chip of bone may be blocking my nerve ending in my c-5 and to have this bone removed...would fusion or any surgery be necessary if this bone was to e removed
From your history this appears to be case of inguinal hernia, which might be reducible at present. You need to get a clinical examination for confirmation of the diagnosis as far as further line of management is considered, hernia's can be treated surgically only, and it is better to get operated before the complications arises.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Rohan Shanker Tiwari, Orthopedic Surgeon
