He Had 11 YEARS of Burning Pain… They Told Him “More Surgery”

Fakadu traveled from San Diego to Los Angeles after suffering for 11 years with burning back pain, foot drop, a dragging leg, and worsening balance issues. After undergoing laminectomy and spinal fusion surgery, he was told he may need more exploratory surgery as his symptoms continued to worsen. But what if the real problem was being overlooked? During a detailed Gonstead spinal analysis and full-spine X-ray review, Dr. Rahim discovered something critical: * Misalignment and nerve pressure at S5 and the coccyx (tailbone) * Nerve pressure at C3 in the upper cervical spine * Despite fusion at C4, C5, and C6, the stress had shifted above the fusion This case highlights a powerful principle: 👉 When one area is fused, the body compensates, often creating new stress points above or below. Dr. Rahim performs precise, targeted Gonstead adjustments to address the root cause and reduce nerve irritation. This is Part 1 of Fakadu’s healing journey. ⚠️ Important Note: This video is for educational purposes only and does not replace medical advice. 📍 Locations: Los Angeles | Dubai 🔔 Follow for more real case stories: Subscribe for Part 2 to see Fakadu’s progress.
