I have lumbar spinal stenosis, and the pain has recently started to refer into the groin and the right testicle. What can I do to mitigate the pain? I have been recommended to have a 4 level lumbar laminectomy. Will this likely be effective to stop the testicular pain?
Hi, Welcome to Chat Doctor forum.  Lumbar spinal stenosis, may have these symptoms, but also clarify about the other causes, like stone in the ureter, and urinary tract infection etc. I advise you to consult a urologist for diagnosis and treatment. You may need to have M.R.I. for diagnosis.  As an alternative treatment I usually prescribe to my patient with such symptoms neurotrophic injections for 10 consecutive days, and then periodically, along with other medication.  Avoid taking potato, other tubers, tomato, egg, chicken, and seafoods, till the pains are completely cleared.  Wishing for a quick and complete recovery. Thank you.
