Patient was injured at work when a trech collapsed and buried him chest high. This was two years ago and he has left femoral nerve damage with quad atrophy, so he can not walk properly. He wears a leg brace. He also has L5-S1 disc herniation per MRI. He has frequent urinary incontince. We are being told the MRI does not suggest that the incontince would be related because they are not sure there is spinal cord compression.
It is a common misconception that urinary incontince stems always from the pressure of a slipped disc or a spinal cord compression. This is misleading, the cause of urinary incontince is also inflammation of soft tissue stimulating urinary nerves, causing the urinary incontince.normally it happen in L1/L2 region.
Deep and intensive acupuncture can help!(not general acupuncture)
Take care
