BACK PAIN OPTIONS
There are lots of Auburn back pain relief plan options! New research shares some fascinating findings. Let us look at opioids and Tylenol for back pain relief. There is no difference in low back pain relief and radicular extremity pain (leg pain sciatica) relief between using Tylenol and taking powerful opioid drugs. (1) Melatonin protects the intervertebral disc’s nucleus pulposus cells from apoptosis (cell death) and blocked disc degeneration. (2) Melatonin accomplishes this. There is hope for disc degeneration’s reversal. And what about this report? Spontaneous resorption of a lumbar herniated disc confirmed on MRI was observed in all of 9 patients who experienced back pain and sciatic leg pain, rejected back surgery, and demonstrated no motor deficit! It required a mean of about 8.7 months. Clinical relief with conservative treatment came about in a mean of just 5.7 weeks. (3) That’s exciting news! The discs resorbed.
BACK SURGERY DECISIONS
What compels a patient to choose Auburn back surgery over other options? The patient’s ideas about the treatment may be based on insufficient information. The time required for a patient to make a decision may be rushed because of scheduling when the patient is one who requires time to really think about the decision. The patient’s not wanting to upset the system, disappoint the healthcare provider by rejecting recommended treatment. The patient’s earlier experiences with treatment options as chosen by relatives or friends and the resultant good or bad outcomes.
