I want to ask how you would deal with spinal stenosis in a patient after endoscopic discectomy. Correlation of MRI findings with the patient's clinical symptoms is crucial in determining the appropriate course of action. If the patient continues to experience persistent pain, numbness, or weakness despite initial postoperative improvement, further evaluation is warranted. Conservative management, including physical therapy, anti-inflammatory medications, and epidural steroid injections, may be considered initially. Would you recommend any specific rehabilitation protocols or additional imaging to guide treatment in such cases?
