“…In clinical practice, degenerative cervical myelopathy (DCM) is a common disease, which results in compression of the cervical spinal cord, leading to numerous neurological dysfunctions, including sensory dysfunctions, fine motor deficits, and incontinence (Lebl et al, 2011 ; Akter and Kotter, 2018 ; Davies et al, 2018 ; Badhiwala et al, 2020 ).
