Humidity, contact with moisture, and stamps sticking to old album pages and then removed are common examples of disturbed gum. Once again, the amount of original gum left (most refer to +/- 50% of the original gum) on the stamp is a distinction that's made amongst some dealers and collectors.
Description of sciatica. Sciatica describes a collection of symptoms that can arise with sciatic nerve compression. This nerve is the largest and longest in the body, running from the base of the spine and down through both legs. Sciatic nerve compression can lead to pain that begins in the lower back and moves through the buttocks, legs and feet.
Fig. 1: Sagittal view of the cervical spine. (larger view). The cervical spine is comprised of seven vertebrae-C1, C2, C3, C4, C5, C6, C7 (often noted as C1-C7) - that begin at the base of the skull and extend down to the thoracic spine.he first cervical vertebra is unique in that it is a ring that rotates around the second vertebral body (the odontoid). The cervical vertebrae closest to the skull are the smallest. All of the cervical vertebrae are smaller than the vertebrae in the thoracic spine (upper back) and the lumbar spine (lower back).
