Nerve root and plexus compressions in other dorsopathies - what does this mean

Nerve root and plexus compressions in other dorsopathies occur when the spinal nerves become compressed or trapped due to degenerative changes in the spine, such as a herniated disc, spinal stenosis, or spondylolisthesis. this can cause pain, numbness, and weakness in the affected area.

What happens during the disease - nerve root and plexus compressions in other dorsopathies

Nerve root and plexus compressions in other dorsopathies occur when the nerve roots and plexus are compressed due to anatomical changes in the spine such as disc herniation, osteophyte formation, or spinal stenosis. this compression can cause pain, numbness, and weakness in the affected area, as well as difficulty in controlling muscles. in some cases, the compression can also lead to the development of neuropathic pain, which is caused by damage to the nerve fibers.
