Step into the world of spinal health with our latest comprehensive video guide on Cervical Myelopathy. This spinal condition can have significant impacts on one's quality of life, causing symptoms ranging from neck pain and stiffness to more severe manifestations such as balance issues and difficulties with fine motor skills (Tetreault et al., 2015). We delve deep into the key causes of cervical myelopathy, including degenerative changes, trauma, and tumours (Rhee & Heflin, 2013), each contributing to the compression of the spinal cord in the neck region. Our video illuminates the various symptoms of this condition, helping you understand why and how they occur. Moreover, we offer insights into the different diagnostic procedures such as physical examinations, reviewing medical history, and the integral role of imaging tests like X-rays, CT scans, and MRIs (Fehlings et al., 2015). The video further discusses treatment options, from conservative approaches like medication and physical therapy to surgical interventions in severe cases (Kalsi-Ryan et al., 2013; Fehlings & Tetreault, 2017). As prevention is always better than cure, we touch upon crucial preventive measures, including maintaining a healthy lifestyle, practising good posture, and regular exercises (Kanchiku et al., 2016). For those seeking additional resources and professional advice, the British Association of Spinal Surgeons' website (www.spinesurgeons.ac.uk) is an excellent starting point. We also highly recommend consulting with Mr. Ahmed Sadek, a renowned consultant neurosurgeon and spinal surgeon. His expertise in the management and treatment of spinal disorders is highly sought after. Mr. Sadek can be reached via Google search, at the Fortius Clinic on Wigmore Street or at the London Independent Hospital in Stepney Green and at his personal website (www.ahmedsadek.co.uk).

Join us as we unravel the mysteries of Degenerative Disc Disease (DDD) in this detailed animation: "Back to Life: Unraveling the Mystery of Degenerative Disc Disease." DDD affects millions of people worldwide, causing pain and discomfort due to the degeneration of spinal discs. In this video, we delve deep into its causes, which include age, genetics, poor posture, obesity, and smoking, as supported by multiple scientific studies [1-6]. We also explain the symptoms of DDD - from localized pain to muscle spasms and stiffness to more severe issues like spinal instability, stenosis, and disc herniation [7-10]. To aid understanding, we provide information on diagnosing DDD and discuss a variety of treatments, from conservative care and injections to surgical interventions [11-14]. But the journey doesn't end there; we empower you with preventive measures and management tips to delay DDD's onset and manage its progression, helping you reclaim your life [15-18]. This video is endorsed by Mr. Ahmed-Ramadan Sadek, a leading consultant neurosurgeon and spinal surgeon renowned for his expertise and commitment to patient care.
