Question by Sanjay - Sep 08, 2022Hindi

Health

Hello Roopashree. I went through a cervical spine surgery way back in 2017 and I do have stiffness and axial pain in my upper shoulder and in my left hand. Can I do the Suryaassan? I will appreciate if you can help me. Regards, Sanjay

It is not advisable to do Surya Namaskar or any rigorous exercises as of now.

Since I do not know your complete history before and after the surgery, I would advise you to get a proper medical diagnosis (X-ray, etc,) to understand the type of pain and severity of stiffness in the cervical muscles.

Thereafter, physiotherapy will be helpful. Once the muscles are relaxed, you can gradually move on to yogic stretches under supervision, followed by asanas.

Initially it was muscle spasam I was completely alright for 7-8 months but may be due to my International travelling job i got pain again. Now since 2-3 months doing physio exercises. I am having soreness felling not pain so it may by pinched nerve in the cervical area. I am working as VP in one company so very active job . Please advice further . Ready to take your consultation on phone also

Ans: Hello Trupti, yes travel can worsen the pain. Once we do the consult we will know whether it is cervical related or trapezius muscle spasm related. Accordingly we will guide you regarding the exact treatment.

Health

Hello,My name is Panduran, age 60.Two years back I have undergone cervical surgery to C2 to C5 . Before surgery I was having numbness and weakness in both the palm and arms.After surgery my left hand is very stiff and I am feeling heavy ness on my left shoulder.Doctor says I have to bear this pain I am on prescribed medicines since two years.Pl advise.

Ans: It is possible that the pain is a complication of some nerve involvement during the surgery and therefore may be irreversible. However, before you give up you may want to take another opinion of a spine/neurosurgeon. Physiotherapy may also have a role in improving the discomfort.

Dear sir, I was operated for spine in 2016 and post operative status was PIVD L5-S1. After a period of two years, again back pain and weakness in left leg was felt. On taking treatment, improvement was seen. The same occurred in 2018, 2020 and now in 2022 I was diagnosed with ACUTE LUMBOSACRAL PAIN AND PIVD L5-S1 as was finding it difficult to walk, weakness in both the legs (extreme weakness in left leg and other complications. I was administered with EPIDURAL INJECTION. Thought at present relief is felt but still finding it difficult to climb the stairs, continuous walking etc and severe back pack is sometimes felt. Doctor had advised for second surgery but I am not open to the surgery. Can you please guide for further medical process.

Ans: I don't think I am qualified to answer your question. You can take a second opinion from another spine surgeon.

why one will have to pay tax at all if there is no income tax for those earning up to Rs 12 lakh per annum?

Ans: Technically there is no tax if taxable income upto 12 lakh (except special rate income), as you get rebate equivalent to tax charged. So you have to calculate tax as per slab rate first and reduce tax liability by way of rebate.
