My Dad is 80 years old with a diffuse annual bulge with a broad based posterocentral and right foraminal disc protrusion and ligamentum flavum hypertrophyindenting both c4 nerve roots indenting the spinal cord causing bilateral neural forminal narrowing (right>left). Subtle myelomalacic changes noted at this level.
He suffered hip fracture in february (after this diagnosis) No he is waiting due to COVID 19.
He is not having pain but his fine motor skills for his arms and legs got impacted.
Is it safe to wait more than two months for surgery. My dad lives in India.
Thank You
