Then doctor advised me to drink more water. But, still if I delayed for taking of water I feel discomfort. Why it is happening ?
Hello, I have studied your case. Due to compression of this nerve root there is pain in your back and rib. Due to occlusion of vessels there can be burning sensation. This can be related to smoking also. I will advise you to do MRI thoracic spine, HRC [CHEST] and EMG- CV [nerve conduction study]For these symptoms analgesic and neurotrophic medication can be started. Till time, avoid lifting weights, Sit with support to back. You can consult physiotherapist for help. Physiotherapy like ultrasound and inferential therapy will give quick relief. I will advise checking your it B12 and it D3 level. As you are saying about increase in heart beat, you may need cardiac primary check up once to rule out any abnormality. Hope this answers your query. If you have additional questions or follow-up queries then please do not hesitate in writing to us. I will be happy to answer your queries. Wishing you good health.
