My name is shameer .I have surgery L1 burst .and loss control on bladder and bowel .11 months completed .how gain Bladder regaining power

Male | 23

It is tough to cope with the loss of control over the bladder and bowel. These problems may occur after L1 burst surgery due to injury to the nerves. Symptoms of this include not feeling the need to pee or poop or leaking. The positive news is that you can regain bladder control with pelvic floor exercises and bladder training. Request your doctor or physiotherapist to devise a plan for strengthening those muscles.

Sir, our patient was told by the Drs on the eve of the feast. He suffered a cerebral hemorrhage due to sudden high blood pressure. He was operated on and a drain was inserted. He was intubated for the first 3 days, and reintubated 4 days later. It was informed that our patient reacted to pain but could not wake up because he was unconscious. We watched him react to some reactions, but his doctors say that these reactions are meaningless, for example, when I tickled the bottom of our patient's right foot, I saw that his right toes made small movements and I saw him open his eyes. and I looked from left to right with eye movements and I saw tears flowing from my left eye, I couldn't see this feeling in the left foot. When we wet it with cotton, I saw mouth and lip movements move, I saw movements that were disturbed by thirst, but there was no speech, but the first 10 legs of his body were very swollen and cold. In the last week, keep the body on fire, from the feet to the head, the body temperature is very high. Our patient was operated on the 14th day.

My mother is 77 years old having space maker so which surgery is suitable coiling or clipping as bulgy lesion is 7mm.

Female | 77

Having in mind the age and the medical history of your mother, the choice between coiling and clipping for the 7mm bulging lesion depends on various elements such as her overall health and the specific anatomy. On the one hand, coiling is a less invasive method and is, thus, the preferred procedure for the elderly; on the other hand, clipping, which can offer more durability, is more extensive and a bit more complicated surgery. The symptoms can be headaches or sight problems, although a great number of people remain asymptomatic. It is quite necessary to consult a neurologist.

Yesterday 13 July 2024 I received MRI report of my wife who did MRI because feeling pressure on jaw and right side of the head, she also feel drowsiness like she is floating. She doesn't have sever headache but above mentioned symptoms have been common through they day for a month now. It gets worse when she is stressed. The MRI showed she had "large left fronto-temporal arachnoid cyst that measures approx 8.4cm in craniocaudal extent, 5cm from side to side and 5.4 cm in greatest antero-posterior dimension, it's causing hypoplasia of the left fronto-temporal lobes" Very worried about this, is this very serious? When do we know it's serious? What should we do about it? What are the surgery options? Is it better to do surgery or leave it as it is?

Female | 31

The problems your wife has are most likely due to the arachnoid cyst. This is a small, fluid-filled pouch that develops in the brain and may lead to pressure and dizziness. Although very serious, not every arachnoid cyst requires surgery. This issue in the long term may be diminished by consistent monitoring by a neurosurgeon to check for early warning signs. In some cases, the operation is an answer to avoid the worsening of the symptoms or the visible growth of the cyst. The road to recovery can provide the most appropriate therapy options with a neurosurgeon to come up with the best possible solution.
