Orthopedic spine surgeon like is the best judge for your spine condition. But the surgical decision has to be always patients. If there is 60% improvement in symptoms, you should try a selective nerve root block and start physiotherapy in the form of back exercise and core strengthening. you can always choose surgery at a later date if you cannot tolerate the symptoms.

So if you are getting back ache and pain in legs, then there is a need to look at those values. If hypothyroidism is well controlled then one has to investigate and find out the re...more
