Hello again, sorry its been a while as I ve been waiting on the results of my xrays...
The right knee xray shows that there has been some movement of the plate moving closer to the joint but nothing serious and is the early signs of arthritis of the knee. (these are the words of the GP from the notes sent by xray person)
The lumbar spine xray shows -- vertabrae L3/L4 stress marks and degeneration ---- L4/L5 degeneration of the discs --- and facet joint wear and damage....
There was no mention of a hip dysfunction or any mild scoliosis? Would this have shown on a lumbar xray?
So what do think of the results with ref to information and advice in previous posts..
I looked into sacroiliac belts, I would like to get one but from all info and reviews they seem un-wearable when bending down? Something I do alot during the day.
Ive taken the heel lift off the orthotic which has relieved the dull ache I was getting in the arch of the opposite foot.. I like to wear the orthotics especially in my empty steel toe capped boots as they give me a feeling of stability. P.S you asked what type of orthotics they are, well if I want to re shape them (not that I would) then all I have to do is use a hot hair dryer aimed at the arch and then it will become pliable....
Ive been doing erector spinae stretching which I think is helping a bit, - not gone swimming yet - been cycling and it wasnt to bad.
So with ref to the questions above, would a lumbar xray show a hip imbalance, or scoliosis? Also what do you think of the xray results to my progrssion forward,.
Thanks all
