question: Hi. I have had stenosis at c6-7 for decades. I have lived with the symptoms, including a couple of hospitalizations for acute radiculopathy. My recent MRI showed severe foraminal stenosis at C4 witChatDoctorpromised exit nerves. This was surprising as this level was fine seven years ago when I had the last MRI. Could this explain the severe pain of unknown origin along the lower edge of my rib cage. This has been an issue for years. Even morphine doesn t lessen the pain. Also, I read somewhere that it could cause skin eruptions. Is this so?
