How should spinal cord cavitation be treated?

Patient's question:

Congenital left tonsil curvature of the cerebellum, had spinal canal surgery in 2009, it has been four years now, and the right hand still has intermittent pain. What should be done about the spinal canal?

Doctor's answer:

According to your condition, it is necessary to take neurotrophic drugs after the surgery. If spinal cord cavernous malformation is indeed present, it is first necessary to assess how pain or limb motor dysfunction manifests. If symptoms are present, early surgical intervention is recommended for relatively better outcomes. If there are no obvious symptoms, periodic magnetic resonance imaging can be considered. Cross-linking can enhance stability, improve local blood circulation around the injured nerve, and prevent delayed spinal cord re-injury. At the same time, drugs that promote nerve regeneration should be used to activate anesthetized nerves, control various functions, achieve optimal recovery, avoid fatigue, and pay attention to rest. Avoid moderate to strenuous physical labor and intense sports. Regardless, early treatment must be administered to prevent delayed nerve re-injury.
