Yes, a herniated disc in the lower back can potentially lead to loss of bowel or bladder control, known as cauda equina syndrome. This is considered a medical emergency and requires immediate attention from a healthcare professional. Symptoms can include difficulty urinating, numbness in the groin area, and weakness in the legs.
Yes, an inner infection, such as a spinal infection or infection of the central nervous system, can potentially cause paralysis in a dog's hind end and lead to loss of control over bodily functions. These conditions can put pressure on the nerves or spinal cord, affecting the ability to move and control bodily functions. Immediate veterinary attention is necessary in such cases.
No, it is not safe to drive with a broken ball joint. A broken ball joint can cause a loss of steering control, leading to a potential accident. It is important to have it repaired before driving again.
Yes, crack cocaine can cause weight loss due to its appetite-suppressing effects and the way it speeds up metabolism. However, weight loss associated with crack cocaine use is not healthy, as it can lead to nutrient deficiencies and other serious health issues.
Arterial bleeding produces the fastest blood loss and is the most difficult to control. Arteries carry oxygenated blood at high pressure and if severed, can result in rapid and profuse bleeding. Immediate medical attention is necessary to control arterial bleeding.
Loss of cell cycle control is typically an oncogenic process. For cancer to occur, the cells need to replicate beyond any normal physiological control. To answer your question, one factor that in important in controlling the cell cycle is p53. p53 is a checkpoint control in the G1 phase of the cell cycle. Defects in p53 cause a loss of cell cycle regulation and are considered an oncogenic transformation.
I had a herniated disk at C5 C6. My symptoms started out as just an aching in between my shoulder blades. Over a period of about 2 weeks it progressivly got worse, the pain became so bad in my neck, shoulders and down my arm I would sit up and cry at night. I couldn't get rid of the pain till I had surgery. My disc was herniated into my spinal cord which was causing impingement. I had alot of numbness, tingling, pins and needles all over my body. The pain was unbearable!
Loss of bladder and bowel control may result, but the majority of patients will regain control
Yes, it causes you to pass out, thus causing loss of control with no one to pilot the aircraft.

If by "get better" you mean stop hurting, the Yes, most times a herniated disk will get better on its own. Approximately 90% of disk herniations stop causing pain within 3 months all by themselves. If you cant wait three months for the pain to go away then there are many options for pain control while you wait. For example, drugs, chiropractic, decompression therapy, stretching, exercise, etc. Not all of these work equally as well for everyone, and usually you need to try one at a time until you find what works best for you. The best guarantee for pain control probably comes from drugs, but these also come with various short-term and long-term side effects. Specific stretching techniques, are the cheapest and often also very effective with no side effects; a good chiropractor or other spine specialist will know which ones you should do for your specific case. Decompression works for some people, but it is often very expensive. Surgery should not be done unless there are severe neurological disorders (loss of bowel control or other muscle paralysis) or if the pain wont go away on its own after 3-6 months (the 10% that dont get better). If by "get better" you mean repair itself back to a normal looking disk, probably not. Recent studies have shown that 30% of the population has a bulging or herniated disk as judged by MRI, and most of them do not cause pain any more, or never did cause pain. It is likely a normal part of aging, so if it doesnt hurt, dont worry about it!
"There are several dangers associated with a herniated disk. Firstly, continued irritation of an already herniated disk will cause increased pain and discomfort as well as some loss of mobility. Further dangers might include those associated with surgery, should the condition require it."
The most common cause of snowmobile accidents is that the rider loses control of the snowmobile. They go too fast which results in loss of control.
