Patient's question:
Uncle has been feeling that his back has never been straight since half a year ago. If he keeps his back straight, it will be especially painful, and he also always has frequent urination and urgency. The area around the heart sometimes also aches. After a thorough examination at the hospital, the doctor said that Uncle has these diseases: lumbar spinal stenosis, diabetes, and also besides heart disease, lumbar spinal stenosis, diabetes, what should be done about heart disease?Doctor's answer:
The patient suffers from lumbar spinal stenosis and has concurrent coronary heart disease and diabetes. Due to the patient's significant pain symptoms, which severely impact their daily life, conservative treatment has been ineffective. In this case, it is recommended to conduct a comprehensive physical examination to identify any absolute surgical contraindications. If there are no absolute surgical contraindications, surgical treatment can be promptly performed to expand the spinal canal, eliminate nerve compression, and fully restore the patient's functional abilities.
