Is Sacralization of the L5 and S1 always congenital. Can it be a result of an injury?

---

I was diagnosed by one radiologist that i have congenital sacralization of my L5 and S1. I work a job that has a lot of strain and impact on my back. I am wondering if my job could have caused the sacralization. I also have the start of arthitis in my L5/S1 region.
I agree with Richard C.
The work you did pushed you over the edge. I had to have surgery on mine.Workman's comp did pay for that. But I put in my time at PT. first. I now wish I had opted for the 6 weeks of traction but I had little kids at home and took care of my elderly mother. I didn't think I had the time. I wish the people that had" my best interest at heart" Would have invested some time in me and helped me out. Actually I don't think I even asked for help...But I want to make sure that doesn't happen to you,OK?. 6 weeks in traction....VS....a lifetime of pain even after the surgery ? take the traction.  (+ info)

How do I know if I have Congenital Rubella Syndrome?

---

I do have congenital cataracts, as well as hypothyroid. some other neurological symptoms began 10 years ago that doctors could find no answer to.
That is an interesting possibility. The source below says that all those things may be associated with congenital rubella syndrome, including the delayed onset of neurological problems. It also gives some contact information if you need more information from the experts. I hope you can finally find out what is going on.  (+ info)

Congenital Heart, Atrial Septal Defect. Has anyone had sufficient results from the Amplatzer Occluder?

---

Atrial Septal Defect is a Congenital Heart Defect. A hole between the two upper chambers. I'm a 47 year old male in good physical condition that was just recently diagnosed. The Amplatzer Occluder is a stent like devise that is inserted into the groin area and delivered to the heart chambers where it opens up like an "umbrella on one side and the the other itself to fill in the hole and close.
ironically i just got this done 2 days ago and i am at home feeling fine. I am eighteen years old and have bounced back well so far.. if you want to keep in touch i can let you know how long it takes for me to start working out again. the hole in my heart was moderately large.. about an inch big, and it is all closed up now. my groin is quite sore but that will go away in about a week. I am so glad they didn't go ahead with open heart.  (+ info)

What is one possible cause of congenital disorders?

What is one possible cause of congenital disorders?
A. Sexual contact
B. Lifestyle choices of the mother
C. Medical errors during delivery
D. All of the above
A congenital disorder is a medical condition that is present at birth. A congenital disorder can be recognized before birth (prenatally), at birth, or many years later. The causes of congenital disorders can vary.

Congenital disorders can vary in severity from minor physical anomalies to more severe abnormalities.

About 25% of birth defects result from genetic abnormalities. About 5% involve abnormalities of large portions or entire chromosomes. Some congenital disorders arise from inheritance of abnormal genes from the parents but some can arise from a new mutation in one of the germ cells that contributed to the fetus.  (+ info)

Would wisdom teeth be considered a "congenital or developmental malformation" for insurance purposes?

---

Specifiically, I'd like to know if wisdom teeth extraction (for an adult) would be excluded from insurance coverage if the insurance plan has a stipulation that states the following:

"Congenital or development malformations existing on the covered person's effective date are not covered."

Thanks!
That sentence is actually refering to a fetus, congential/development malformations are those present at birth, whether inherited or caused by the environment.

Wisdom teeth are certainly present at birth but they aren't considered to be malformations. You would be better placed to contact your insurance provider as it would be different depending on your level of cover, and who covers you.

I'm assuming you're from America but most Australian policies cover this under major dental for a portion of the amount (i.e. I got $300 back for a $1,500 procedure).  (+ info)

My daughter is seeing a GI for Reflux but they also found a congenital stenosis of the external auditory cana?

---

My daughter is seeing a GI for Reflux but they also found a congenital stenosis of the external auditory canal
she also has chemical rhinitis,bilateral mucoid effusion, and dysphagia. Has anyone gone through this if so what did they do. Thank you!!!!
i don't think i remember reading for all of these as a syndrome, fortunately eac stenosis if not severe is not a bad thing and so is gerd. as for effusions, they can consider tympanoplasty depending on the clinical scenario, good luck  (+ info)
