Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I have had a limp in my left leg for over ten years and have been informed by other doctors that I have a focol dystonia, not sure of the spelling, or a problem with my back. i have had two back operations, one for Stenosis and another for a fusion on L4 and L5 but I still have the limp. This has ruined my whole quality of life. do you have any suggestions?
HI Well come to HCM I really appreciate your concern, if this is the neurological lesion then it may give symptoms accordingly as in your case if this the lower limb lesion which affect the nerve system then you might have the symptoms of that kind only, in such case right diagnosis is the main motive to treat the condition and for that you have to go for different tests, like MRI, conduction test, biopsy, dopllar study, without these treating the condition may not be possible, hope this information helps.
