I am 25 years old and heres my story. I sat in a massage pedicure chair and taught aerobics about 2 hours after. the next day i was having muscle spasms excrutiating pain. i went to a walk in clinic they gave me muscle relaxors, anti inflammatories...i couldnt turn my head right left up down and forget bending over. they sent me for an MRi and results were:C 4-5 center and to the left disc protrusion which touches but doesnt efface the cord
C5-6 moderate sized posterocentral discs protrusion which doesnt touch and mildly effaces the spinal cord.
C6-7: disc desiccation and mild posterocentral annular buldge of disc which doesnt touch or efface the cord.
At T 7-8: small posterior and the right disc protrusion which does not touch and mildy efface the cord.
I am having hand and arm numbness since this all started then 2 weeks later I went for a walk and out of no where my right leg and foot go numb...10 min later the right side of face goes numb.
im freeking out! scared!
im worried and waiting for a nuerosurgeon to get back to me.
in the mean time i will be getting massage therapy and Physical therapy.
I hope the disc gets to healing because the last thing i want is surgery!!!!
