In this episode, we have our first guest; Dr. Sravisht (Chevy) Iyer, MD who serves as the CoDirector of the Athlete Spine Injury Program at the Hospital for Special Surgery!

We discuss neck injuries in the setting of "congenital" cervical stenosis in NFL athletes. We dive into the anatomy, the pathology, and how we think about returning the athletes "back to play." There are many factors to consider in both the injury and the timeline of resuming sporting activities after a neck injury in the setting of congenital cervical stenosis.
