What Is The Treatment For Difficulty In Controlling The Bowel Movements?
I have spondolythesis with a class 3 slip along with spinal stenosis and a few foramen broken. I am waiting for a spinal fusion surgery in the very near future. I have had back pain for ten years and put off the surgery as long as I could stand the pain. THe other morning though I woke up in a lot of pain. I went to the ER and got my Toroidal and Morphine injections like usual. However I am now peeingmyself and having troubles controlling my bowels. I am waiting for my VA Doctor to contact me back to tell me what to do but I am growing concerned rather quickly.
Your symptoms are typical of a spine compression (spinal canal stenosis). For this reason, I would recommend you to go to the ER for a careful physical exam and a new Spine MRI study. You may need surgery as soon as possible.
